Real Madrid REASSURE Alvaro Carreras they will do everything to sign him

It was widely expected that Alvaro Carreras will be a Real Madrid player going into this summer’s club World Cup. However, a deal could not be reached in time for the competition. Benfica demand €50M for the player, a fee Real Madrid have relentlessly tried to bid down.

The player has 100% given his green light for the deal, and even he can’t understand why a deal isn’t reached. Carreras is now in the United States with Benfica, as they prepare for the upcoming club World Cup.

Real Madrid phones Alvaro Carreras

Alvaro Carreras was beginning to get worried following the delays over a consensus between the two clubs. This prompted Real Madrid to reach out to the player via phone call, as they reassure the player of their interest. The club will do everything to sign him after the club World Cup, that at least is clear reports Jfelixdiaz.

The merengues will keep active contacts with Benfica, and will do everything to lower their €50M asking price. However, it’s unclear if Benfica will be willing to negotiate, and to how low they can go. So far, they have been very difficult in negotiations, refusing to give in.

How do the Merengues cope at the Club World Cup?

With Ferland Mendy ruled out for the competition due to injury, Real Madrid find themselves in all sorts of troubles. They are stuck with Fran Garcia, who has not been all so impressive since his return to the club.

There’s also another option in academy star Diego Aguado, who could fit in as a Left CB and a Left back. The 18 years old has had a go with the first team this season, which left many fans wanting to see more of him.

Looking at the options available, it is left to see how Xabi Alonso lines up during the competition.
