Real Madrid Settles on Signing Benfica Player
A Spanish press report stated that Real Madrid is targeting the signing of Benfica's left-back Álvaro Fernández in the upcoming transfer market.
The Spanish newspaper 'AS' mentioned that Real Madrid is considering Fernández as a primary option to strengthen the left-back position this summer.
The source added that the club's chief scout, Joni Calafat, and his team have been monitoring the young player for a long time, in anticipation of signing him.
The source indicated that Benfica wants 60 million euros for the young player, but Real Madrid has a plan to sign him for a lower amount.
The newspaper concluded that Real Madrid's plan relies on Manchester United activating the purchase option in Fernández's contract for 20 million euros, then the royal club would sign him from Manchester United for 30-35 million euros.
Álvarez joined Benfica in January 2024 on loan from Manchester United, before the Portuguese club decided to activate the permanent purchase option for 6 million euros last summer.
