Dani Carvajal future at Real Madrid is increasingly uncertain as the veteran right-back finds himself playing a reduced role under the club’s current plans.
Once a key figure in Los Blancos’ defensive line, the 34-year-old is now facing the possibility of a summer departure, with interest reportedly building both in Europe and beyond.

Recently speaking about his situation, Carvajal made his stance clear.
“I’ve just recovered, and all I want is to train and enjoy playing. The club fully supports me. I need minutes to see the level I can offer on the pitch. As long as we’re aligned, there won’t be any problems,” he explained.
His words underline a simple reality: his continuity at the Santiago Bernabéu depends on the role he is given on the field.
Growing Interest from Italy for Dani Carvajal
For now, that role appears limited. Last weekend, new head coach Álvaro Arbeloa once again left Carvajal on the bench, opting instead to start academy product David Jiménez.
The decision reportedly did not sit well with the experienced defender, who believes he is fully fit and ready to compete at the highest level following his recent injury setback.

According to Calciomercato, at least three Serie A giants are closely monitoring the situation. Inter Milan, Juventus, and AC Milan are all said to be considering potential moves should Carvajal become available at the end of the season.
His experience, leadership, and winning mentality make him an appealing short-term reinforcement for clubs aiming to strengthen their defensive options.
Saudi Arabia and MLS Also in the Race
Beyond Italy, interest is also emerging from Saudi Arabia and Major League Soccer in the United States. Financially, these destinations could present far more lucrative offers than those available in Serie A.
However, reports suggest Carvajal may be reluctant to join a European rival capable of facing Real Madrid in continental competition.
For now, the situation remains open. Much will depend on whether Carvajal regains a prominent role in Madrid’s plans. If not, a new chapter in his decorated career could soon begin elsewhere.
