José Félix Díaz 'catches' Álvaro Carreras and responds about his future: 'Everything is...'

The arrival of the Club World Cup prevented Real Madrid from being able to fully strengthen its squad. Although Real Madrid managed to sign Huijsen and Arnold, the club came close to finalizing the transfer of Álvaro Carreras. Keeping its interest in Benfica's left-back, José Félix Díaz received some surprising words from the player himself.

"Everything's fine", Álvaro Carreras said about his future as a Real Madrid player. Although the signing couldn't be finalized, this was due to Benfica's intention not to let the player go before the World Cup. From both Carreras and Real Madrid, they managed to reach an agreement that, because of the Club World Cup, they'll seek to carry out in a few weeks.

"The important thing right now is the Club World Cup", Carreras added to his words to make his priority clear. Completely confident that his signing for Real Madrid will be finalized, Carreras has focused exclusively on his duties for this tournament.

Álvaro Carreras's future

In just his first season with Benfica, Álvaro Carreras managed to earn a starting spot without any problems. In the 4,520 min. he played during the season, Carreras proved to be an effective full-back for both attack and defense. With a lot of creativity to create goal-scoring opportunities, Carreras also stands out for his reliability when defending against opponents.

Real Madrid, despite not having managed to sign him before the World Cup, is patiently waiting for it to end. Despite the obstacles Benfica put in the way to prevent Carreras's departure, this will be inevitable in a matter of weeks.

The player's words to José Félix Díaz have confirmed that his signing for Real Madrid remains a near reality. For now, Real Madrid and Carreras will continue their path in a Club World Cup that's getting closer to starting its next phase.
