The anticipation that Dani Carvajal, the legend of Real Madrid, is experiencing is not exclusive to him. With the World Cup approaching, the player does not have a full guarantee of his position with the Spanish national team, which puts coach Luis de la Fuente in a real challenge.

But this uncertainty extends to major national teams, where several stars are experiencing similar situations due to injuries, lack of playing time, or fierce competition.

Neymar.. The Debate Never Ends

Neymar's future with Brazil remains a constant topic of discussion. Coach Carlo Ancelotti faces continuous questions about the historical top scorer of the Seleção, but recurring injuries and a decline in consistency put his participation under scrutiny.

Paulo Dybala.. The Stalled Talent

Paulo Dybala suffers from recurring injuries, which have affected his consistency with Roma and weakened his chances of securing a permanent spot with the Argentine national team.

England.. Intense Competition

Trent Alexander-Arnold's situation is not comfortable with the England team under Thomas Tuchel, amidst injuries and strong competition for his position. Connor Gallagher was also forced to move to Tottenham Hotspur in search of more playing time, after an unstable experience with Atlético Madrid.

Germany.. Setbacks and Injuries

Marc-André ter Stegen suffered a new injury with Girona, complicating his return to coach Julian Nagelsmann's plans. On the other hand, Jamal Musiala has gradually returned with Bayern Munich, but he faces strong competition after a long absence.

James Rodríguez.. A Race with Fitness

James Rodríguez moved to Minnesota United to regain his readiness. His participation with Colombia seems possible, but only if he is in the best physical condition.

Darwin Núñez.. An Uncertain Future

Darwin Núñez is going through a complicated phase, with his roles diminishing at Al Hilal, in addition to not securing a starting position with coach Marcelo Bielsa in the Uruguay national team.

"Carvajal's Worry" is not an individual case, but a global phenomenon experienced by big stars between past glory and present pressures. The World Cup is approaching, seats are limited... and the final decision is determined by readiness, not names.
