Journalist Jorge Bacon revealed that Dani Carvajal's trip to the Qatari club Al-Gharafa on Monday was neither casual nor coincidental, but rather part of serious considerations regarding his professional future away from Real Madrid.

According to the source, the right-back believes that his career with the Royal Club is nearing its end, considering the Qatari league as his preferred destination for the next phase, especially since his brother-in-law and close friend, Joselu, is there. Additionally, he desires to experience a less pressured environment compared to European competition.

Carvajal is scheduled to make his final decision about his future next July, at the end of the season and the expiration of his current contract with the Royal Club. However, current indications suggest that leaving is more likely than renewing.

The source added that the player feels he no longer has much to offer at the highest level in Europe and prefers to move to a calmer environment that allows him to enjoy his family during the final years of his football career.

Carvajal's top priority right now is to fully recover 100% from his injury and to try to add more titles to his record with Real Madrid until 2026, with a special focus on one goal that takes precedence over all other competitions: participating in the World Cup.

Winning the World Cup is Carvajal's greatest dream and the only title missing from his sports career, as he understands that the upcoming edition may be his last chance to achieve this historic accomplishment.
