Dani Carvajal has played down any concerns surrounding his Real Madrid future, insisting his full focus remains on recovery, fitness, and enjoying his football amid ongoing discussions at the club.
Softfootball understands that despite his positive outlook, Carvajal remains sidelined following a successful knee surgery, with Real Madrid carefully managing his rehabilitation process to ensure a full and safe return to action. The club’s medical team are taking no risks with the veteran defender, given his importance both on and off the pitch.
According to Fabrizio Romano via his official X handle, the experienced right-back addressed questions over his contract situation — which is set to expire in June 2026 — with calm reassurance, stressing that there is alignment between himself and the club regarding the next steps. Carvajal said:
I recently recovered, all I want is to train and enjoy playing,
The club is fully on board with me. I need to play to see the level I can deliver on the pitch. As long as we’re on the same page, there won’t be any issues.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid are gearing up for a major showdown as they prepare to face Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup final tomorrow. Los Blancos booked their place in the final after edging city rivals Atlético Madrid 2-1 in a hard-fought semi-final, showcasing their resilience and depth despite injury setbacks.
With silverware on the line and a Clásico final ahead, Madrid will be hoping to cap off the Super Cup campaign in style while Carvajal continues his recovery with confidence that his future at the club remains firmly on track.
