Career

In the club

Camavinga started at amateur club AGL Drapeau Fougeres with the football games . In 2013 he moved to the renowned youth academy of Stade Rennes , from which later first division players such as Yoann Gourcuff , Yann M'Vila , Yacine Brahimi , Moussa Sow and Ousmane Dembélé made their way into professional football.

He made his Ligue 1 debut on April 6, 2019 (31st matchday) when he was substituted on for M'Baye Niang in the 3-3 draw against SCO Angers in the closing stages . In the remainder of the season, coach Julien Stéphan gave him confidence and used him in six other games, four of which he has already started. At the end of the season he won the trophy with the team , but was not used in this competition.

At the beginning of the 2019/20 season, Camavinga prevailed as a regular player. The 16-year-old midfielder received wide media attention for the first time in the 2-1 home win on matchday two against reigning champions Paris Saint-Germain .
