Real Madrid Confidencial Real Madrid activate plan B for Carreras and set their sights directly on Liverpool
The Madridist team has another option noted in case Carreras's arrival becomes complicated
Liverpool and Real Madrid remain alert to the summer transfer market, with Milos Kerkez as one of the targets on their agendas. The young Hungarian left-back from Bournemouth has stood out in the Premier League, establishing himself as one of the most promising talents in his position. In Valdebebas, they consider him an option if negotiations for Álvaro Carreras don't progress, although it seems the youth academy product will return home.
At 21 years old, Kerkez has shown maturity and power at left-back, combining his physical prowess with an ability to join the attack. His profile fits perfectly with that of a modern full-back, capable of creating numerical superiority on the wing and providing security in defense. These qualities have caught the attention of major European clubs, and in Bournemouth they already consider his departure likely in the coming weeks.
Liverpool could sign Kerkez, but watch out for Real Madrid...
Rumors linking the player to Liverpool have gained momentum in recent days. Sources close to the footballer indicate that a deal is very close, with contractual terms nearly finalized. In this context, Real Madrid is taking a wait-and-see approach, aware that the priority remains Álvaro Carreras.
Meanwhile, in England, they take it for granted that Arne Slot's team has moved ahead, which would complicate any attempt by the white team. If his arrival at the Merseyside club is finally confirmed, Liverpool would already have Andrew Robertson's replacement.
Álvaro Carreras could be official in the coming hours
According to "OK Diario" on Tuesday afternoon, Real Madrid has finally completed the signing of Álvaro Carreras for the first team. Although there is still no official confirmation, he is expected to be available to play in the Club World Cup.
The deal encountered complications in recent hours due to SL Benfica's firm stance in negotiations. In the end, the Portuguese club gave in to Real Madrid's demands and Álvaro Carreras will play at Santiago Bernabéu.
SL Benfica clung to the release clause, which is €50 million, but in the end Real Madrid managed to slightly reduce the Lisbon club's demands. According to "OK Diario", the entity presided over by Florentino Pérez will pay a total of €45 million, distributed in two installments of €22.5 million.
