Another prodigy after Mbappé?

In any case, that's all we hope for.

From the height of his 17 years, Eduardo Camavinga is one of the major assets of Stade Rennais, to the point of being at the gates of a first selection in the French team.

A great reward for the young community.

After leaving Angola for France at only 2 years old, the left-hander started in judo like his big brother.

Even if he has a preference for football, he takes advantage of recess at the elementary school of La Chattière, in Fougères to show his talent.

Fortunately, one of the supervisors spotted him, told his parents about it and allowed the future phenomenon of the round ball to join the club in her city: the Drapeau Fougères.

Then it will be the Stade Rennais training center in 2013, before making his professional debut at 16 when he entered the field during a Ligue 1 match against Angers.

An impressive rise in power

The Breton obtains French nationality on November 4, 2019, which allows him to become selectable for the French team.

It was done seven days later, on November 11: Sylvain Ripoll summons him to the Hopes.

A nice surprise for the kid that all Europe is tearing apart.

After a successful and promising first season, Camavinga started the next one with a first call from Didier Deschamps to the France A team.

Everyone on your screens on Saturday at 8:45 p.m., to maybe experience Camavinga's first selection against Sweden, at Friends Arena in Stockholm!

If he treads the field, he will be the youngest French international since 1945. A prodigy, we tell you!
