Dani Carvajal discuss Champions League final and Zidane’s impact at Real Madrid

Dani Carvajal insists that Real Madrid are fully focused on Champions League final, and believes Zidane is the right man to take club forward for the long haul.

“This year’s final will be similar to two years ago and I expect it to be even. We’re two rivals who know each other very well and hopefully the final falls on our side,” Carvajal said, AS reports.

He added, “Zidane has managed the team very well, he’s brought freshness and distributed the minutes which has allowed us to get to Milan [the site of the final]. Of course I want him to continue. And he deserves to on his own merits.”

I’m very happy to be on this initial list for the Euros. It was a special day. Both Juanfran and I will make it difficult for the Coach by doing well and trying to win [the Champions League],” he added, before touching on the presence of club colleague Lucas Vazquez in the list.

“I’ve played with him for years, in the cantera, and he’s helped us a lot this year. He deserves it and I’m happy for him.”

“We’ve had a record-breaking second half to the campaign and perhaps we’ve been let down by the points we dropped in the first half of the season. The season is a very long one and Barcelona must be congratulated for having collected a point more than us.

“We’re longing for the day of the final to arrive, although we’ve now got two weeks in which to prepare well for the game and analyse the opposition. Let’s hope that it’s a good final and that we win it. I don’t think that it has been a bad season. In La Liga we were in the hunt right until the end and we were knocked out of the Copa del Rey because of an off-field issue and we’ve reached the Champions League final.
