Carreras previously played for Manchester United before joining Benfica last summer. As a former Real Madrid junior, his return to the Spanish club has been a long-standing goal for the team.

Inda revealed that the reason behind the delay in the transfer was due to a disagreement between Real Madrid and Benfica over the payment terms. Real Madrid wanted to pay the transfer fee in installments, while Benfica insisted on receiving the full amount in cash.

However, it appears that Real Madrid has managed to negotiate their terms, and the deal is now nearing completion. According to Inda, Carreras will earn a net salary of 3.5 million euros per season for the next 5 years, although it is unclear whether he will receive a signing bonus.

With the agreement almost finalized, fans can expect to see Carreras donning the Real Madrid jersey in the near future.
