Great uncertainty surrounds the future of right-back Dani Carvajal at Real Madrid, with his contract expiring in June.
Recently, a clear change has been observed in the team’s hierarchy, as the Madrid coach seems to be trusting Trent Alexander-Arnold more as the first choice on the right wing of defense, while Carvajal has fallen into the background.
Frequent injury problems have significantly influenced this situation, with the coach often highlighting the Spanish player’s physical condition as the main reason for the lack of minutes on the field.
However, according to reports from transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, the Madrid club’s leaders are considering the possibility of keeping Carvajal after the summer, with the aim of not losing a weighty figure and leader in the dressing room.
The 34-year-old may be forced to accept a secondary role if he wants to continue to be part of the team next season.
Meanwhile, his future in the Spanish national team for the 2026 World Cup remains uncertain.
