The question in the title of the article sounds strange, but with Real Madrid's inconsistent and declining form at the moment, anything is possible - a player leaving at the end of the season, new players coming in, a new coach, everything is open to all sorts of possibilities.

This season's flaws are showing before it ends!

In previous seasons, Eduardo Camavinga has been a key part of Carlo Ancelotti's squad at Real Madrid, a joker that the Italian has used in almost every position on the pitch, as a centre-back, as a centre-back and as a double pivot, but this season things seem to be going the opposite for the Frenchman at Real Madrid since his arrival from Rennes.

The flaws in Kamavinga's game were evident recently when the Italian coach used him in the game they lost in London to Arsenal.

After this game, the player's struggles this season and the significant drop in form from previous seasons became more apparent.

Unfortunately for him, after the loss to Arsenal, his woes were compounded, and in addition to his poor performance, he was shown a red card before the end of the game.

Mistakes that led to decisive goals against Real Madrid!

Problems started to emerge in the Spanish Super Cup final clasico in Saudi Arabia against Barcelona when the Frenchman gave away a penalty with a rough tackle on Javi, and then during the La Liga and Champions League matches, the player's poor performance continued when he caused a foul on Thomas Partey at the Emirates Stadium that led to Arsenal's second goal and then caused a heavy defeat.

With plenty of midfield options this season for the Italian to rely on, if the Frenchman is to regain his former form and the confidence of his manager, he must first regain his mental focus and then his form will automatically follow.
