Carvajal: Start with Super Cup

Dani Carvajal is playing down talk of Real Madrid winning six trophies in the new season, preferring to take it one tournament at a time.

Madrid will compete with Sevilla for the European Super Cup and Atletico Madrid for the Supercopa de Espana, as well as resuming hostilities in the Copa del Rey, League and Champions League.

Los Blancos will also take part in the Club World Cup but Carvajal isn’t looking past the first trophy on offer this season, the Super Cup, which takes place in Cardiff on August 12.

“It’s not easy to win six trophies. Let’s try to win the European Super Cup and from there go on to the rest,” AS reports Carvajal as saying.

“Hopefully we can retain the Champions League.”

Carvajal also welcomed the arrivals of James Rodriguez and Toni Kroos and backed Gareth Bale to build on his good first year at the club.
