Madrid, Spain – As e be say, the mighty Real Madrid don flex dem muscles as dem announce say dem don sign Álvaro Carreras, di young defender wey don japa from Benfica. Na serious matter o! Dis guy go dey with dem for six years, till June 30, 2031, as di club don show dem serious commitment to make am part of dia plans.
Carreras wey don clock 22 years, na him dey come replace di lateral left position wey don dey cause wahala for Carlo Ancelotti since Ferland Mendy no fit stay fit. (Maturity na the name of di game, right?) Di big announcement come after plenty negotiations wey dem don dey do since di World Club Championship wey don pass.
Di guy sabi fit well for di game, no be small. Him don prove say him fit for di big leagues, after e don shine for Benfica, where he win di Liga Cup last season as dem gree am become first choice fullback. E no too far from e roots, since e don pass through di Real Madrid academy between 2017 to 2020. (Wetin dem dey talk? Na in house wey dem dey call am back o!)
For di meantime, Carreras go go meet di president of Real Madrid, Florentino Pérez, to sign di contract. E go get press conference afterwards as him prepare to don his whites again. Di move no be just about football; na also symbolic gesture of finding family for footballing world. (Na true paddy story we dey talk here, no be lie!)
Dis deal na di fourth signing for di summer for Madrid, as dem don also acquire Trent Alexander-Arnold, Dean Huijsen, and Franco Mastantuono. Dem dey look to build solid team wey go challenge for everything wey dem fit grab – Champions League and La Liga no go dey too far.
Carreras na example of wetin Real Madrid dey try do. Dem dey jack up dem squad with young talents wey don get experience from international games. (Old school style no fit carry di day again, abeg!) But e no mean say wetin happen for di past go fit stop di present and di future;
With Carreras, dem dey hope sey he go blend well with di team plans of coach Xabi Alonso. E na lateral wey fit move deep and defend well while contributing offensively. E good as he don show am for di season wey don pass.
So, make we all dey watch as Carreras go feature when di new season begin. Dis na one transfer wey go bring plenty excitement! (No be say we no dey feel am, na action we dey wait to see.)
