Laravel 6: named routes inside a folder doesn't get the user object

I'm having a UsersController in this path app/Http/Controllers/Admin with the default edit function

public function edit(User $user)
{
    dd($user);
}

and this route

Route::namespace('Admin')->group(function (){
   Route::get('adminUsers', 'UsersController@index')->name('adminUsers');
   Route::get('adminEditUser/{id}', 'UsersController@edit')->name('adminEditUser');
   Route::get('adminDeleteUser/{id}', 'UsersController@delete')->name('adminDeleteUser');

});

enter image description here

So all controllers get the "Admin" folder name before it instead of adding it for every controller. Now I have this view

@foreach($users as $user)
      <tr>
          <td>{{ $user->name }}</td>
          <td>{{ $user->email }}</td>
          <td><a href="{{ route('adminEditUser', $user->id) }}" class="btn btn-sm btn-primary">Edit</a>
              <a href="{{ route('adminDeleteUser', $user->id) }}" class="btn btn-sm btn-primary">Delete</a></td>
      </tr>
@endforeach

The edit link opens this url

http://127.0.0.1:8000/adminEditUser/1

And the $user object doesn't have any user data (user with id 1 already exists)

App\User {#1419 ▼
#fillable: array:3 [▶]
#hidden: array:2 [▶]
#casts: array:1 [▶]
#connection: null
#table: null
#primaryKey: "id"
#keyType: "int"
+incrementing: true
#with: []
#withCount: []
#perPage: 15
+exists: false
+wasRecentlyCreated: false
#attributes: []
#original: []
#changes: []

#dispatchesEvents: []
#observables: []
#relations: []
#touches: []
+timestamps: true
#visible: []
#guarded: array:1 [▶]
#rememberTokenName: "remember_token"
}

Why is that and how to solve this?

Your route parameter is named id not user. The parameter name has to match what you are type hinting for the Implicit Route Model Binding to work.

Route::get('adminEditUser/{user}', 'UsersController@edit')->name('adminEditUser');

Now it will match the method signature you have:

public function edit(User $user)

In your case you were just getting Dependency Injection of a new User object instead of any Model Binding happening.

"Laravel automatically resolves Eloquent models defined in routes or controller actions whose type-hinted variable names match a route segment name."
