Real Madrid defender Carvajal renews contract
Madrid: Real Madrid on Wednesday announced that defender Dani Carvajal has signed a new contract that binds him to the Spanish football giants until June 2020.
The Spain international still had four years to run on his previous deal with Real, though some doubt had been cast on his future following the capital club’s acquisition of Brazil right-back Danilo from Porto, reports goal.com.
However, Carvajal has now decided to commit himself to Real for an additional 12 months.
The 23-year-old came through the youth team ranks at Real and starred for the club’s B team before moving to Bayer Leverkusen in 2012.
Madrid, though, put a buy-back clause in Carvajal’s contract with the German side and in 2013 enacted their right to re-sign him for an estimated 6.5 million euros for six years after a stellar debut season in Germany.
He has since become a regular in the Real starting line-up and was a part of the team that won both the Copa del Rey and the Champions League in 2014.
The left-handed batsman from Haryana is garnering praise from all quarters for the way he’s finishing games regularly in the most exciting IPL season.
Gavaskar reckons Tewatia’s whirlwind knock in Sharjah (in IPL 2020) where he smashed West Indies pacer Sheldon Cottrell for five sixes in an over, gave him the confidence that he belongs to the big stage.
Speaking on Cricket Live on Star Sports, Gavaskar said, “That assault on Sheldon Cottrell in Sharjah gave him the belief to do the impossible and the confidence that he belongs here. We saw the impossible (he did with the bat) the other day as well. There’s no twitching or touching the pads (which shows a batter’s nervousness) when he bats in the death overs. He just waits for the ball to be delivered and plays his shots. He’s got all the shots in the book, but most importantly his temperament to stay cool in a crisis is brilliant.”
Gavaskar has also nicknamed the 28-year-old cricketer the ‘ice-man’ and lauded Tewatia’s ability to remain unruffled during the tense moments.
