Dani Carvajal shared how three Real Madrid legends, Cristiano Ronaldo, Sergio Ramos and Luka Modric inspired him to be a better player.
Carvajal, Real Madrid full-back and one of the captains, opened up about the profound influence Ronaldo had on his development as a player during their time together at the club. The Spaniard also highlighted the influence of Ramos and Modric in building team culture.
“Cristiano, Sergio Ramos and, it’s very difficult, but Luka Modric. They are people who talk to you and you have to take notes. You’d come on a trip and you’d see Cristiano going into the pool of cold water. Sergio training and Luka in the gym,” said Carvajal.
“Luka has been able to take such a small country to a World Cup final. He arrived here almost with leaden feet and how he has won everyone over, it’s unbelievable,” he added about Modric.
Ancelotti’s men have started the season well with new signing Jude Bellingham impressing early on. The English midfielder has scored in every league game so far and helped Madrid win all four of their games.
