Real Madrid says defender Dani Carvajal will not return to the club next season, with both sides agreeing to end his contract at the conclusion of the current campaign. The club states that it has “agreed to bring an end to a wonderful chapter” as Carvajal’s time at Real Madrid comes to a close. Real Madrid also notes that Carvajal’s contract runs through June. Carvajal, 34, is a long-serving figure at the team: he joined the club in 2002, spending years in the academy before moving into the first team. In total, sources describe him as having played 23 seasons for Real Madrid—10 in the academy and 13 with the main squad. Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez is quoted praising Carvajal as a legend and a symbol of the club and its youth system. The reports do not add details about Carvajal’s next club or the specific terms of the mutual agreement beyond it taking effect at season’s end.
