Álvaro Carreras has been a player for Real Madrid since yesterday, and today he signed his contract.
After undergoing a medical examination in the morning at the Blua Sanitas Valdebebas Hospital, the player signed the contract that binds him to Real Madrid until 2031 alongside president Florentino Pérez in the boardroom of Ciudad Real Madrid.
"I wanted to thank the president for his words and Real Madrid for their trust. I left as a child and return as a man. It is an honor to wear the jersey of the best club in the world.
I didn't want to forget my family, without whom I wouldn't be here. Thank you very much and Hala Madrid!"
The new left-wing back of the white team received a replica of the stadium, a watch, and a jersey with his name. He also revealed that he will play with the number 18.
He inherits this number from Jesús Vallejo, who has moved to Albacete. Previously, players like Tchouameni or Gareth Bale wore it.
