Álvaro Carreras arrives and Fran García may leave: he already has a sale price

After several weeks, Real Madrid's left-back position has been reinforced with the signing of Álvaro Carreras. Coming from Benfica, Carreras has caused Fran García's future at Real Madrid to be questioned. In light of this, according to Defensa Central, AC Milan has shown interest in signing the Spaniard.

Having kept an excellent relationship for years, both clubs have started negotiations. Fran García's value would be 20 million euros, an amount Milan could afford to pay. Despite the high level Fran showed during the Club World Cup, Álvaro Carreras's arrival has completely changed his situation.

Although no offer for Fran has been received so far, it is expected to happen in the coming days. After Luka Modric's signing, Milan considers Fran an important operation following Theo Hernández's departure to Al Hilal.

The next departure from Real Madrid

Trained in Real Madrid's youth academy from 2015 to 2020, Fran García has developed in an interesting way at the club. After an excellent spell at Rayo Vallecano, Fran returned in the summer of 2023 to be Ferland Mendy's backup. Although Fran did get some minutes, Mendy never lost his starting spot.

This situation changed last season due to the constant injuries suffered by the French full-back. Although Fran's level left much to be desired under Carlo Ancelotti, all of this changed with Xabi Alonso's arrival and the changes he made.

Fran went from being Mendy's backup to the starter because of his commitment and sacrifice in response to Xabi Alonso's instructions. Although this high level caused trust in keeping him on the team, the reality is that Serie A seems to be his next destination.

A necessary farewell

Although Fran managed to show his worth, the reality is that his departure from Real Madrid would be very beneficial for the team. The income that his transfer could generate would help the team's finances while also creating a necessary spot for Carreras.
