Various stream members Liverpool The team is on the wrong side of 30 and will have to be replaced by Arne Slot for the next few years, despite the success he has brought to the club during the Jurgen Klopp era.
The likes of Alisson, Virgil van Dijk, Andy Robertson and Mohamed Salah are coming to the end of their time at Anfield and the Reds are reportedly already lining up a replacement for the Scotland full-back.
According to the Portuguese channel The GameLiverpool have a strong interest in Benfica’s Carreras and could trigger the €50m buyout clause in the left-back’s contract in 2025.
The 21-year-old has attracted the attention of many big clubs with his performances since moving to Portugal on loan in January, before completing a permanent move. 6 million euros he moves to Benfica during the summer.
A recent report by The Game He has also stated that Barcelona and Real Madrid are also monitoring Carreras’ situation, which could be a big problem for other interested parties given his Spanish roots.
Why does Liverpool want Alvaro Carreras from Benfica?
It’s not hard to see why Liverpool would want Carreras as a long-term replacement for Robertson, as the left-back ticks most of the boxes. The 21-year-old is young, has experience playing at a good level and is very attacking, a trait most football clubs would prefer to have in their full-backs.
Carreras also has experience of English football having come through Man United’s youth academy. The Spaniard never made his first-team debut for the Red Devils, however, was a regular for the Manchester club’s under-23 side and was named their 2022 Player of the Season.
Man United could have made another transfer blunder for the defender as Benfica could receive €50m from Liverpool or another big European club for the Spaniard next summer.
