Injury Suspension
Est. Return 10/1/2025
Sent off in Champions League
Carvajal was shown a straight red card during the second half of Tuesday's Champions League clash with Marseille.
ANALYSIS
Carvajal came on after three minutes to replace the injured Trent Alexander-Arnold, and was shown his marching orders in the second half. If Alexander-Arnold's injury proves to be serious it could force Madrid into a makeshift right-back, potentially Federico Valverde or Raul Asencio. Carvajal will be suspended for at least one match in the Champions League. That would sideline him for a Sept. 30 trip to Kairat Almaty.

Makes squad against Juventus
Carvajal (knee) will make the squad for Tuesday's clash against Juventus in the FIFA Club World Cup, coach Xabi Alonso said in the press conference. "Both Carvajal and Militao will be called up for tomorrow after long recoveries. It's going to be a plus for them, but also for the team to feel close to them. Both those playing and those around them have a very important role. When they're on the bench experiencing the game and supporting us, that connection is created, and it's important. Their competitive level will still need more minutes, but when they get back into shape, they'll be very important next season."

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Keen on MLS move
Carvajal is keen on completing a move to MLS once his Real Madrid contract expires, according to MARCA.
ANALYSIS
Carvajal has said MLS is "one of the candidates" for a destination when he leaves the club. The 33-year-old veteran is under contract until the summer of 2026, but it wouldn't be shocking if he chooses to leave the club next summer since he's likely to operate as the backup of Trent Alexander-Arnold following the latter's move to Los Merengues from Liverpool.
