Real Madrid are happy with how Zinedine Zidane profiled Eduardo Camavinga during the international break, and Jose Mourinho could actually replicate it at Real Madrid, according to a report from La SER.
Camavinga was pretty good for France during the international break. He started two of their four games and did not look out of place even once. It was not the best fans have ever seen Camavinga play, but it was the best they have seen from him in a very long time.
Real Madrid fans understand that, in order to get Camavinga back to his best, it will take time, patience, and consistency from both the player and Jose Mourinho. Playing him in a role where he flourishes could help his confidence massively, and doing that on a consistent basis at Real Madrid could help the club also revive a midfielder who has been out of it for a very long time.

The report also says that the club believes that Camavinga can play a key role in bringing the quality that has been missing in midfield for the last couple of years. That is a bit far-fetched and optimistic after just four games, but it is not impossible.
If Zinedine Zidane has truly helped him become the player that Real Madrid fans wanted him to be, then Mourinho will try to make sure that it continues when he plays for Real Madrid as well.
Another report by RMC Sport also talked about how Zidane fully supports Camavinga. He likes the player's physicality and ball circulation, and he wants him to go forward, and recover the ball in advanced areas of the pitch. That is exactly what Zidane tried to profile Camavinga as, and it worked like a charm.
Camavinga played alongside another defensive midfielder, but was always making himself available to his teammates. He circulated the ball well, and was also involved in the attack, as so many of his actions came towards Belgium's penalty area.
It is not like it was against a small team; Belgium are a good side that were winning the match for a very long time, but Camavinga was one of the players who made sure that the win went to France. His performance was really good, and was hopefully a sign of things to come from the Frenchman.
It remains to be seen how consistent Camavinga can actually become over the course of the season. Doing it for two good games in a different team is easier than doing it consistently in a team where the player has struggled for the last two years. Hopefully, that changes, and Camavinga is able to get back to his best, because when he is at his best, he is absolute dynamite.
