Real Madrid are reportedly in talks to sign a familiar name in Madrid who previously joined Manchester United but never played for them.
Real Madrid are reportedly negotiating with Benfica regarding a potential transfer for left-back Alvaro Carreras.
Despite a €50 million release clause in his current contract, the LaLiga runners-up hope to agree on a lower fee.
Madrid's defensive reinforcement efforts
As reported by The Athletic, the defender is open to a move to Madrid but will make his decision public after the Portuguese Cup final against Sporting Lisbon on Sunday.
)
Talks between the club and player are expected to intensify following the domestic cup match, which concludes Benfica’s season.
Should the transfer for Carreras materialise, Madrid anticipate his availability for this summer’s Club World Cup, scheduled to begin on June 14.
Madrid are actively seeking to bolster their left-back options this summer, with Bournemouth’s Milos Kerkez and Bayer Leverkusen’s Alejandro Grimaldo considered.
Carreras previously spent time in Madrid’s academy between 2017 and 2020 but never featured for the senior side before joining Manchester United.

5 times English clubs have faced off in European finals
Ahead of the Europa League final between Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur, Pulse Sports revisit the previous instances in which clubs from England’s top division have tussled in title-deciding European matches.
Although the full-back did not make a first-team appearance for United, he had loan spells at Preston North End in the Championship in the 2022-23 season and Granada in the first half of the 2023-24 season before a loan move to Benfica in January 2024.
What’s next for Benfica?
Benfica and Sporting face off in the Taca de Portugal final on May 25, with the Liga runners-up keen to prevent a league and cup double for the Lions.
