Real Madrid's coaching staff have reportedly raised concerns over the attitude and professionalism of one of their defensive stars this season, casting a shadow over what has otherwise been a promising campaign for the player.

The player in question is 23-year-old left-back Carreras, who returned to the Santiago Bernabéu last summer in a high-profile move from Benfica. Since then, he has established himself as a key figure in Carlo Ancelotti's setup, making 36 starts across all competitions and solidifying his place in the starting XI.

However, behind the scenes at Real Madrid's Valdebebas training ground, not everyone is singing the same tune. According to a report from The Athletic, members of the coaching staff have voiced frustrations about the young defender's conduct on more than one occasion this season. The report states: "Sources among Madrid’s coaching staff have complained about the 23-year-old’s attitude and professionalism."

These claims come amid broader challenges within Álvaro Arbeloa's squad, though Carreras' representatives have strongly denied the accusations, insisting that the player remains fully committed to the club.

For fans and followers of Los Blancos, this internal friction is a reminder that even the brightest talents can face scrutiny. As the season progresses, all eyes will be on Carreras to see if he can silence his critics and continue his impressive form on the pitch.
