Juventus, Manchester United, and Napoli are among several top European clubs that have been linked with monitoring Álvaro Carreras, who is a 23-year-old Spanish left-back at Real Madrid. It is believed that Arsenal has a particularly strong interest, with manager Mikel Arteta seeking future defensive reinforcements. It is reported that Arteta is willing to offer Carreras a significant role and consistent playing time, and this potential offer is said to have made a move more attractive to the player. Carreras has a contract with Real Madrid until 2031, but the club might consider a transfer if they receive a convincing offer, as his opportunities for regular playing time could be limited. The Spain U21 international joined Real Madrid from Benfica in July 2025 for a reported €50 million, one year after moving to the Portuguese club from Manchester United for €6 million. Transfermarkt estimates his current market value to be €60 million.
