France star Eduardo Camavinga praised Didier Deschamps during the 2022 FIFA World Cup
France star Eduardo Camavinga praised Didier Deschamps during the 2022 FIFA World Cup. Speaking to Le Parisiens, Camavinga said (via Madrid Universal):
“Didier Deschamps.. what comes to mind is world champion. He won as a player and as a coach. We play in the same position, so his advice carries a lot of weight. Deschamps often corrects my body positioning. I have a weakness in my game where I often position my body with my back to the game. It’s a dream to be coached by him and also by Ancelotti.”
Camavinga added that he learned a lot from the great Zinedine Zidane:
"I learned roulettes from watching Zidane. I wasn’t even born when he won the World Cup. My father had tapes of the '98 World Cup"
He further went on to term the 2022 Ballon d'Or winner Karim Benzema as his role model:
“Benzema is a role model. Ballon d’Or winner and Real Madrid captain. He’s someone very important in my life and he made me very comfortable in Madrid. We have a great relationship.”
The Real Madrid star also raved about his club teammate Luka Modric:
“You learn a lot from great players like Modrić. He tells me to play with simplicity, to control myself and, when I have the opportunity, to go forward with the ball. He helps me to stay calm, On my birthday, Modrić tried to congratulate me in French. It wasn’t right, but I liked the intention (laughs). Modrić told me that he could be my father because he is 17 years older.”
