Ricardo Carvalho set for Real Madrid move in €8m(£6.7m) deal

Reunion: Ricardo Carvalho reunites with Former Chelsea Boss at Real Madrid
The 32-year-old’s departure completes the clear-out at Stamford Bridge this summer - unless Real can convince Chelsea to sell an unhappy Ashley Cole also - and reunites him with his fellow Portuguese, and the man who brought him to England in the first place, and whom he shares an agent with, Jose Mourinho. Carvalho is understood to have signed a two-year contract with an option for a third year. Mourinho had insisted that he needed an additional defender when Madrid returned from their pre-season tour in the United States on Monday.

Ex-Chelsea duo:Both players make their ways to different club
Carvalho, 32, admitted his desire to reunite with Mourinho last month saying: 'If there was a possibility to sign for Madrid, I would go there right now swimming or running. Chelsea have a commitment with me to let me go this summer, for reasons which those responsible at the club and I know.'The departure of Carvalho means they have another slot for a foreign signing on their squad roster, with Benfica defender Davide Luiz high on Carlo Ancelotti's wanted list.
