Real Madrid Decides Carreras' Fate Definitively

Real Madrid has finalized its decision regarding the future of Álvaro Careras, deciding to keep the Spanish full-back in the team for the upcoming season, thus ending the rumors that linked the player with a departure during the current summer transfer window.

According to the Spanish newspaper "AS," the club has informed the player of its decision, as Portuguese coach José Mourinho has confidence in his abilities and relies on him to form a duo in the left-back position alongside Marc Cucurella in the upcoming season.

The report indicated that Mourinho considers the left-back position to be well-rounded in his lineup, with the presence of Carreras and Cucurella, especially since both players offer different technical characteristics that make them complementary options for this position.

On the other hand, the future of Fran Garcia remains open to all possibilities, amid increasing interest in his services from several clubs, with Real Betis being one of the leading contenders to sign him during the summer transfer window.

Carreras joined Real Madrid in the summer of 2025 and delivered good performances at the start of his journey, before his performance declined in the second half of last season due to the team's inconsistent results.
