Álvaro Carreras talks about his debut at Real Madrid and highlights his partnership with Vinicius Jr. and Dean Huijsen

Newly signed left-back Álvaro Carreras marked his Real Madrid debut in style, helping the team secure a 4-0 preseason win over Austrian side WSG Tirol. The Spaniard, who joined from Benfica after the Club World Cup in a deal worth R$314.5 million, described the experience as a dream come true.

“It’s an honor to be here with all my teammates,” Carreras said after the match. “It doesn’t matter if it’s a friendly for us, the important thing is to prepare for what comes next. Winning always matters.”

Building Chemistry on the Left Side

Carreras highlighted his smooth adaptation to the squad, particularly on the left flank alongside Vinicius Jr. and center-back Dean Huijsen. “With teammates like that, football becomes more beautiful and easier,” he said. “I’m very happy with Vinicius on the wing and Dean in defense. It’s an honor.”

Looking Ahead in Preseason

The match was part of Real Madrid’s ongoing preseason campaign, with Carreras expected to see more action in upcoming friendlies. The Merengues remain undefeated in their summer schedule as they prepare for the start of competitive fixtures.
