Eduardo Camavinga admits France teammate Karim Benzema has had a big influence on him settling so quickly at Real Madrid.
The 18-year-old Frenchman revealed that he was welcomed by all of the Real Madrid players, but he explained why he is maintaining a closer relationship with his compatriot.
"I'm very surprised, especially with Benzema, because they are very humble players," Camavinga said during a press conference with France's under-21s.
"[Benzema] put me at ease straight away. They even started joking with me, even though I don't speak Spanish. Both [Luka] Modric and Benzema gave me a different name (laughs).
"It's a secret, I'm not going to say it, but I am already integrated [into the team].
"And then we can speak in French [with Benzema]. I sit next to him at the table. He told me that if I needed anything, I should let him know."
