But with Casemiro having departed and Manuel Ugarte ruled out for what may be a prolonged period due to knee ligament injury, the club is considering moving for another midfielder.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">Camavinga is believed to favour staying at Real though the Spanish club may be open to selling the Frenchman in order to make space for Rodri. The 23-year-old Camavinga, who has three years left on his contract and was not part of France\u2019s World Cup squad, has a \u20ac1bn release clause, but Real would listen to offers of between \u20ac50m-\u20ac60m (\u00a342m-\u00a351m) for the player, it is thought.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"85982723-5eaf-4b3d-bcab-fcfcb455f505\" data-spacefinder-role=\"inline\" data-spacefinder-type=\"model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.ImageBlockElement\" class=\"dcr-d9bay7\"><figcaption data-spacefinder-role=\"inline\" class=\"dcr-174mzkf\"><span class=\"dcr-vyhg7z\"><svg width=\"18\" height=\"13\" viewbox=\"0 0 18 13\"><path d=\"M18 3.5v8l-1.5 1.5h-15l-1.5-1.5v-8l1.5-1.5h3.5l2-2h4l2 2h3.5l1.5 1.5zm-9 7.5c1.9 0 3.5-1.6 3.5-3.5s-1.6-3.5-3.5-3.5-3.5 1.6-3.5 3.5 1.6 3.5 3.5 3.5z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><span class=\"dcr-1cipnsy\">Sander Berge featured for Norway at the recent World Cup, including in the quarter-final against England.<\/span> Photograph: Chris Carlson\/AP<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">Berge, who is 28 and has previously been on United\u2019s radar, would cost around \u00a340m and, unlike Camavinga, has considerable playing experience in England. The Norwegian signed for Sheffield United in 2020, joined Burnley in 2023 and left for Fulham the following year.
