Real Madrid have reached deal with Chelsea in signing veteran defender Ricardo Carvalho for eight million euros (10.60 million dollars), according to media reports on Tuesday.

Carvalho, 32, will sign a two-year contract with Real. He will thus be reunited with coach Jose Mourinho, under whom he played at FC Porto from 2001 to 2004 and at Chelsea from 2004 to 2007.

Carvalho will become Real's fifth signing of the summer transfer window, following Sergio Canales, Pedro Leon, Angel Di Maria and Sami Khedira, when the deal is finalised.
