Real Madrid are in talks with Manchester United about a deal for Alvaro Carreras.

United originally raided Real Madrid's La Fabrica academy for Carreras as a teen before selling him to Benfica last summer.
Now Real want to re-sign the youngster and AS says they're seeking a favour from United.
United can buy back Carreras for €18m and Real Madrid have informed the fallen Premier League giants they're willing to pay €35m to bring him back to Madrid this summer.
At Benifca, Carreras' buyout clause is set at €60m.
