Dani Carvajal

Dani Carvajal was born on 11 January 1992 in Leganés, a city in the Community of Madrid, Spain. Being of pure Spanish descent, Dani was raised along with his native sister Patricia by the father Mariano Carvajal and mother Lola Ramos.

 

In 1999, the little boy joined ADCR Leman’s club and spent 3 seasons there. When he was ten, Daniel had already joined Real Madrid’s youth system, the Spanish professional football club. The boy showed himself as very capable of football, so he managed to successfully climb through the ranks and debuted for the Real Madrid Castilla in 2010. Dani has been a respected football player from a young age. Carvajal has been spotted by Real Madrid since 2008. They were impressed by the football player's skill in managing ball control as well as his strong endurance on the field. So it’s not strange that he was gifted for his hard work in being the team’s best player by Alfredo di Stefano, the best player in Real Madrid history. Already in his debut season, Dani Carvajal got on the reserve team's starting XI and became the captain of the team. In the second season, he played 38 matches for the Real Madrid B team and scored twice. Moreover, thanks to Dani Carvajal, the Real Madrid B team got a promotion to Segunda División in 2012. 

Against the background of soccer success, Dani’s personal life also had not been standing still. Back in the Real Madrid Castilla years, Carvajal fell in love with Marta Morale. The girl was in a relationship with Dani throughout the footballer’s youth career. Unfortunately, the distance had a negative impact on the couple in love. For a year, Dani was spending one season in Germany, but the girl couldn’t move to her man due to studying. Before Carvajal returned to Madrid, they had broken up. Then Dani began a short relationship with Marta Garcia Pavon. But very soon, Dani Carvajal and Marta Morale got together again. 

On 11th July 2012, Devi signed a contract with Bayer 04 Leverkusen for 5 years. The German Bundesliga club provided Carvajal with a €5 million transfer fee in order to move her from Real Madrid to Leverkusen. There also was added the condition of returning the player back to the previous club. According to that, Real Madrid can return Devi back paying him €6.5 million after 1 season, €7 million after 2 seasons, and €8.5 million after 3 seasons in Bayer 04 Leverkusen. Playing in another team, Carvajal didn't disappoint its fans and officials. He scored his first goal for Leverkusen against TSG 1899 Hoffenheim on 25th November 2012. Also, he earned the third-best right back title at the end of his debut season. Devi's spectacular and professional performances forced Real Madrid to think about getting him back. 

Thus, in 2013 Real Madrid bought back Deni Carvajal for around €6.5 million. Thus, it's clear that Demi is a really professional right back on the football field. Playing in Real Madrid's La Liga division on 18 August 2013, Deni debuted in a 2–1 win against Real Betis. In the first season, Carvajal made 45 appearances and scored twice against Rayo Vallecano and CA Osasuna. Moreover, on 24th May 2014, he managed to help Real Madrid to win over Atlético Madrid in the UEFA Champions League final. The career of Carvajal continued rapid growth. Despite health issues, in 2016 he made 23 appearances in the league season. According to Marca, viral pericarditis, which was diagnosed for Dani, kept him out of playing football for at least 2 months. Fortunately, Carvajal’s health issues disappeared over time. On 9 August Dani scored the final 3–2 in the 119th minute in the UEFA Super Cup clash against Sevilla in Trondheim. As a result, La Liga had got a victory one more time. In 2018, Carvajal was invited to Spain’s final squad for the FIFA World. Dani passed out the first game against Portugal, but on June 20 he appeared there and played the entire 1–0 win over Iran.
