<![CDATA[ Carreras risca dias no calendário: lateral aguarda pelo Real e espera não voltar ao Benfica ]]>

Carreras remains focused on playing for Real Madrid and hopes not to even have to be present at the start of Benfica's training sessions, which return to training on July 14.

However, the left-back may still have to wait longer than he would like, although a transfer to the Madrid club is almost a given. As we reported on July 1, Real Madrid are only willing to resume negotiations with Benfica once their participation in the Club World Cup is over, but Xabi Alonso's team are still on course to reach the final.

The Spanish side will face PSG on Wednesday, the 9th, in the semi-finals of the competition and, if they win, they will play the final on the 13th, that is, the day before Benfica returns to action.

As for the amounts, Benfica remains adamant: they want €50 million, the value of the Spaniard's release clause. Real Madrid should indeed reach these amounts, but the final discussions will involve payment deadlines.

What is certain is that the defender only thinks about Real and even the Benfica team felt that the player was more disconnected than usual during the Club World Cup.
