Madrid: So, Dani Carvajal is starting to think about what comes next for him. He’s been with Real Madrid for almost his whole career, but he’s turning 33 soon and is eyeing a big payday.
He recently had a chat with Esquire and mentioned how a move to Saudi Arabia sounds pretty appealing. After all, he’s dealing with a knee injury that might keep him out for the rest of the season.
Carvajal said, “I’m 32, not a kid anymore. I’ve got maybe four or five years left in me, and time flies.” He’s made it clear that if he leaves Madrid, he won’t play in Europe again. He doesn’t want to face his old team in the Champions League or La Liga.
He even joked about his buddy Joselu, who plays in Saudi Arabia, saying, “I’m waiting for you here, saving a spot for you.” The Saudi Pro League has its perks, like close stadiums and a great quality of life. Plus, the financial rewards are hard to ignore.
With Carvajal likely out for the rest of the season, there’s a chance that Trent Alexander-Arnold could take his spot in the team. Madrid just extended Carvajal’s contract until 2026, showing loyalty to a player who’s given so much to the club.
But if Alexander-Arnold joins, he’ll want to be a starter, which could mean the end of Carvajal’s regular spot in the lineup. It’s a tough situation, but that’s football for you!
