Madrid make official club to club contact with Benfica for Carreras

Real Madrid continue to work non-stop in the transfer market prior to the Club World Cup to reinforce the squad and thus avoid giving the bad image of this season in which they have ended up empty-handed. 

'Los Blancos' had big problems in defence during the season and that is what the board has been most determined to reinforce, making official the arrival of Dean Huijsen and practically securing the services of Trent Alexander-Arnold. 

In addition, the 'Merengues' have also gone all out for Benfica gem Alvaro Carreras, who would strengthen the left-back position at the club, which has not been well covered this season.

In fact, Real Madrid have already established contact with Benfica and the two clubs are in negotiations to reach an agreement as soon as possible for the left-back, who has already agreed personal terms with the Spanish club.
