MADRID, 20 Mar. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Spanish international and Real Madrid defender Dani Carvajal has assured that the number of youth players in the first team of FC Barcelona is due to the fact that when “economically you are not in a good situation” you have to “take people from below”, and he has described The situation that Vinícius suffered in El Sadar, where he heard humiliating chants, was “very serious.”
“The great explanation it has is how each club is doing economically. In the end, when you are not in a good situation economically, you have to remove people from below, it is something logical,” he said in an interview with COPE’s El Partidazo when asked about the cases. of players like Lamine Yamal or Pau Cubarsí.
“In Madrid, Jude -Bellingham- is within your reach, who is one of the best in the world and you have to sign him. Maybe the signing of Jude closes the door, for example, to Sergio Arribas, who this year has gone to Almería. But Real Madrid is the club that brings out the most First Division players. There is a bit of a difference, in the level of demands of Real Madrid and also in the economic situation of each club,” he added.
Furthermore, he considers that the arrival of footballers like the Frenchman Kylian Mbappé to LaLiga EA Sports is beneficial for everyone. “He is a great player. I think he would be good for LaLiga and for our football it would be good. If the great players come to our League, if it is to our team, much better. But since Lewandowski has come to Barcelona, who is a player ‘top’. That makes our League grow, our football is better and that is good for all of us,” he stressed.
The Leganés full-back also appreciated his teammate Brahim’s decision to play for the Moroccan team. “He has decided to play with the Moroccan team. I wish him the best of luck, and I am sure he will do very well there. I am not the one to tell him anything, he knows what it means to defend Spain, but he also knows the competition have here and the level of the players in this team, which is very high,” he said.
“IT IS VERY SERIOUS WHAT THEY WERE SINGING TO VINÍCIUS”
In another vein, Carvajal recounted how he experienced what happened with Vinícius in El Sadar. “It was a set piece, a corner, and they were shouting, and I told the referee to listen to what they were saying. What they were saying is very serious, especially in that background. What is a shame is that there are people who dirty our football with those chants, discriminating. I think they should never set foot in a stadium again,” he said. “I don’t know what the protocol is to stop this situation, but let’s use all possible means to prevent it from happening,” he continued.
He also explained that it is “complicated” for the Brazilian not to enter his rivals’ game. “The rivals try to get on his nerves and he is a young boy. He is one of the best players in the world, he is an example for all children and I hope that this match against racism against Brazil serves as an example,” he stated. “When you know that a player can react in a negative way, you can still take him out of the game. I can understand it, but hey, that’s what referees are for, so that it doesn’t happen,” he continued.
Regarding his sporting situation, the Madrid player was very happy. “I am in one of my best moments. To reverse complicated situations you have to work, focus on your passion. It is also based a lot on trust, that makes things turn out well,” he highlighted.
His contract, on the other hand, ends in 2025. “At the moment we have not signed anything, nor have we sat down to talk, but with me it is really easy. I don’t think there will be any problem. I hope they want to renew me. The first thing I want to extend my contract with the club it’s me, I’m very delighted,” he said.
Finally, Carvajal hopes to be able to enjoy his first continental championship this summer. “If I make the list this summer it would be my first Euro Cup, my first final phase. I hope I can be there and win it. I have been able to enjoy two World Cups, but, between one thing and another, I have not been able to enjoy the final phase. final of a Euro,” he indicated.
However, he believes that the tournament “is complicated.” “There are high-level rivals, with spectacular players, but I think we have a fantastic group and that we are one of the candidates,” she said, before talking about the main favorites. “France has just been a finalist in the World Cup, England has a great team, Portugal, Italy has also won the last Euro Cup, Holland has a great team… At this level, the matches are determined by details; if we manage to control those details as much as possible, it may still fall,” he concluded.
