Manchester United have signed Real Madrid youngster Álvaro Fernández Carreras on a free transfer after his contract at the Bernabéu came to an end.
AS report that the 17-year-old has ‘reached an agreement’ with United and will sign a four-year deal at Old Trafford.
The left-back, who was part of the Juvenil C side in Madrid, saw his contract come to an end on June 30th and had failed to agree on a new deal with the Spanish club.
Madrid made every effort to try and sign the youngster, who arrived at the club from Deportivo three years ago, to a new, improved deal but he elected to turn that down in favour of a move elsewhere.
He is excited by a potential ‘adventure’ in the Premier League and believes that he will be able to ‘convince’ at Old Trafford and make the jump to the first team in future.
He has been offered the opportunity to train with the senior team if they have issues at left-back, although he will initially go into Manchester United’s youth team upon his arrival this summer.
