Didac Aguirre Xabi doesn't count on him, farewell after Carreras, he'll be Real Madrid's rival in LaLiga
The Real Madrid footballer whose departure has been announced after Álvaro Carreras's arrival
After several weeks, Real Madrid has managed to strengthen its left-back position for the coming seasons. Álvaro Carreras has been introduced as the club's new player, sharing his excitement about returning to Valdebebas. While this signing is a great reinforcement for the first team, Carreras arrived to prompt the departure of Youssef Lekhedim.
Better known as Yusi, the youth academy product is one of Real Madrid's great talents. According to information from the newspaper Marca, Alavés has managed to secure his signature for a 4-season contract. Real Madrid will have, during the first two campaigns, a buy-back clause to be able to count on Yusi again.
Despite Yusi's great talent and having been drafted to the Club World Cup, the left-back didn't play a single minute. According to what we know at Defensa Central, his departure has taken place so he can gain experience and the right to return to Real Madrid.
The farewell of a left-back
Arriving at Real Madrid's youth academy in 2017, Yusi quickly moved up through the ranks. Starting in the youth soccer base, Yusi played in Juvenil C, B, and A until reaching Castilla in the summer of 2024. Under the orders of Raúl González Blanco, the left-back managed to show his worth and earn a place of importance within the team.
With the usual speed of a left-back, Yusi stood out for being a player committed to helping the team in every match. From attack to defense, Yusi is a player who covers most of the field to support his teammates.
Despite being a player who could fit into Xabi's schemes, Carreras's signing is a major problem. Although Alavés isn't a club as competitive as Real Madrid, it has fewer demands and less pressure, an ideal scenario for someone like Yusi.
The effort to return
Just like several youth academy players before him, Yusi will finally make the leap to a team that offers him the opportunity to play at the elite level. Being only 19 years old, Yusi has a wide margin to improve, consolidate himself, and fight to return to Real Madrid.
