Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti has sung the praises of Eduardo Camavinga.

Ahead of their Copa del Rey clash with Atletico Madrid, Ancelotti was happy to talk up his young midfielder.

He said, "Impetus is a quality. He always tries to cut many passes and sometimes he arrives a little late.

"Sometimes it can happen that he gets a yellow card early, but he is a very correct player. He is not a player who kicks without the ball and his evolution is a modern midfielder.

"He covers the position in front of the central defenders very well. His game against Athletic was outstanding because tactically he played very well. The defensive aspect was fantastic."

Ancelotti also said of Nacho Fernandez: "I like him in all positions. He always complies. His characteristics are more of a central defender, but he is very intelligent. He likes himself more as a central defender and I take him into account... that's why tomorrow he plays as a winger!"
