French media reports indicate that Real Madrid is very close to completing its third summer signing in preparation for the 2025-2026 season, despite the current season still being underway.
According to the network "Foot Mercato," the Royal Club has officially completed two important signings so far: the first is the acquisition of Trent Alexander-Arnold from Liverpool on a free transfer. He is expected to arrive in Madrid before July 1st to participate in the Club World Cup, with Real Madrid paying a small compensation to the English club estimated at around 2 million euros.The second signing is defender Dein Huysen, where Real Madrid’s management has finalized all details with English club Bournemouth and paid the €58 million release clause. The player is expected to arrive in the Spanish capital in the coming days.
In related news, reports indicate that Real Madrid is close to sealing a third deal to strengthen the squad by signing Spanish left-back Álvaro Carreras, who has delivered an impressive performance with Portuguese club Benfica this season. He has participated in 48 matches, scoring 4 goals and providing 5 assists.
Carreras has strong support from Real Madrid’s coaching staff, especially after the underwhelming performances of current left-backs Ferland Mendy and Fran García, making him the top priority to reinforce this position.
The official announcement of Álvaro Carreras’ signing is expected in the coming days, likely before the end of May, allowing him to join the team’s camp in the United States and participate in the Club World Cup.
These signings underline Real Madrid’s ambition to build a strong, competitive team across all competitions next season, with reinforcements in both defense and attack featuring experienced and highly skilled players.
