Four ways Manchester United can line-up with Eduardo Camavinga
Man United will be stacked in the midfield, provided they keep all players beyond the summer and add some fresh talent.
Formation 3: 4-2-3-1
This remains the most viable option for United as Camavinga has been playing in a two-man midfield since he was 16.
Lining alongside his countryman Paul Pogba in the middle, this approach will aid United in being versatile whenever they are on or off the ball.

While on offence, they can move to a 4-1-4-1 formation, allowing Pogba to get forward. But if playing against a better attacking side, Pogba can stay back and the team can operate with two pivots.
Formation 4: 3-5-2
Once again a multifaceted approach, United have indeed shown how threatening they can be with a three-man defence.
The 18-year-old, on his part, excels in his formation too as one can remember from his Man of the Match performance against PSG in August 2019. Eduardo Camavinga, then 16, ran tirelessly as Rennes finely beat PSG 2-1.
On that very night, he ended with a passing accuracy of 98% and assisted the winning goal. Camavinga’s tireless shifts made an experienced midfield of Marco Verratti and Marquinhos look like laymen, as the Parisians could only muster two shots on target.
