Born in a refugee camp in Angola after his family fled war in DR Congo, young Eduardo’s life started with challenges most children could never imagine. But through courage, family strength and a love for the game, his dream began to grow — from the streets of Fougères in France to the world stage of the UEFA Champions League. We explore how Camavinga switched from judo to football, the coaches who spotted his talent, and the moment he burst onto the scene with Stade Rennais at just 16. You’ll hear how he became one of France’s youngest internationals ever, signed for Real Madrid, and helped the club lift Europe’s biggest trophy. Packed with shoutouts, big moments, resilience and life lessons, this episode shows kids and families that where you start does not decide where you finish. Perfect for young football fans aged 6–12, car journeys, bedtime listening and screen-free family time.
