Dani Carvajal will play 50 international matches against Serbia and captain La Roja. Back then, he appreciated the words of Vinicius, his teammate at Real Madrid, where he once again accused Spain of being a racist country. “There is no doubt that Spain is not a racist country. Since I was little, I grew up with many nationalities in my neighborhood, in Leganés. Spain is not a racist country,” he stressed. “Just comment that we are totally against any situation of racism in the stadiums. I know what Vini is going through and we support him both internally and publicly. I think LaLiga is improving and protocols are being made to crazy people can’t come back to sporting events. But, more than those people, I don’t consider Spain unworthy to celebrate a World Cup.”
Regarding the possibility of wearing the armband, Carvajal admitted that “it will be something very nice, ten years later to take the field as captain of the national team. My close circle knows what it means to me to be captain of Spain. I hope I can do it tomorrow.”
Finally, he is grateful that De la Fuente and Rodri gave him his votes for the Ballon d’Or, even if he does not see himself as a favorite. “It’s clear, being a defender… in football, what shines is the goal. But hey, having the chance to win it I’m very happy”
