Carvajal in talks: Getafe pushes for surprise transfer

In Getafe’s Coliseum there is tense anticipation, as Dani Carvajal, the 34‑year‑old right‑back, is said to soon wear the club’s colours according to talks. Coach José Bordalás is regarded as a staunch supporter, while both parties are optimistic about the possible transfer to the Spanish Primera División.

Getafe negotiates with Carvajal

Getafe is currently holding talks about signing the experienced defender, but so far no contract has been signed. According to the source, the negotiations are moving in a positive direction, making a move for Carvajal in the near future appear possible. The club sees him as a player who can strengthen the squad with his experience at the highest level.

The 34‑year‑old Carvajal was a long‑time regular at Real Madrid and won the most important titles there. Due to his current contract situation, no transfer fee would be required for a possible move. The decisive factors now are the terms of his individual contract and LaLiga’s approval.

Bordalás as driving force

José Bordalás is a strong advocate of the transfer and wants Carvajal in his squad. The coach personally called the player to express his interest and explain the possible role in the team. This direct approach left a positive impression on the former Real Madrid captain.

Carvajal values the proximity to his home, as a move to Getafe would allow him to stay in Madrid. He also finds the club’s sporting project attractive and sees Bordalás’ leadership as an opportunity to continue his career in La Liga. According to talks, his physical condition is also satisfactory.

Financial hurdle in the transfer

A central obstacle lies in Getafe’s current wage cap. The club must examine a possible expansion of the salary space with LaLiga in order to register the player. Various options to create the necessary financial leeway are already being discussed internally.
