Dani Carvajal has joined Getafe on a free transfer after his contract with Real Madrid expired. The former Real Madrid captain has signed a deal with the La Liga club that runs until June next year.
Carvajal's move brings an end to a remarkable 23-year association with Real Madrid. During that time, the defender won six Champions League titles, establishing himself as one of the most decorated players of his generation.
Injury concerns
His final season in the Spanish capital was hampered by significant knee injuries. Carvajal suffered a cruciate ligament tear in October 2024 and sustained another serious knee issue a year later. These problems limited his playing time significantly in his last campaign.
Getafe, who currently sit 11th in La Liga, have welcomed his arrival. The club said it welcomed his "experience and leadership". The move sees Carvajal relocate just over 10 miles south of the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium.
His extensive career at the highest level is expected to provide a boost to Getafe's defensive options as they prepare for the remainder of the season.

Millwall's immediate focus is on halting their slide after a 1-0 home defeat by Swansea City on October 13, a result that extends their winless run to three league games. The only goal was scored by Swansea's Ronald Pereira Martins in the 90th minute, assisted by Joseph Amankwaah Opoku. This follows a pattern of defensive fragility seen in the 2-2 draw with West Ham last month, where a late lead was also surrendered. The club, currently 10th in the Championship, must now prepare for a home fixture against Lincoln City on October 17.
