Real Madrid are in advanced negotiations over a new contract extension for veteran defender and club icon Dani Carvajal.
Indeed, The Daily Briefing reports that both parties are eager to continue their successful partnership and are working to finalise the details of the agreement.
Carvajal important not only on the pitch but also in the dressing room
Carvajal, 32, has been a crucial figure at the Santiago Bernabeu since his return from Bayer Leverkusen in 2013.
Known for his tireless work ethic and leadership qualities, the right-back has established himself as a reference point for younger players joining the squad.
The Spanish international’s experience and commitment to the club have made him a beloved figure among fans and teammates alike.
The veteran right-back’s influence extends beyond his performances; he plays a vital role in mentoring the club’s emerging talents, guiding them through the demands of top-level football.
Carvajal has faced some injury challenges in the past, but his resilience and dedication have always seen him bounce back stronger.
Now regarded as one of the best in his position in the world and in contention for the Ballon d’Or, the 32-year-old appears set to continue his story at Real Madrid.
Real Madrid management recognises the value of retaining a player of Carvajal’s calibre, not just for his abilities on the field but also for his leadership in the locker room.
With Toni Kroos retiring this year and Luka Modric likely to leave next summer, retaining a seasoned campaigner and serial winner like Carvajal, even if it is only for one additional season, would be a boost for Real Madrid.
