Dani Carvajal: "The dressing room is focused on the game against Georgia, which is crucial."
"I live each training camp to the fullest, trying to enjoy every moment because it could be the last one." With that spirit of giving his all for the Spanish jersey, Dani Carvajal is enjoying a new experience with the national team after winning the UEFA Nations League in his previous appearance with the team.
The Leganés-born player appeared in a press conference on Wednesday hours before the entire group traveled to Georgia to play a game that Dani considers crucial, just like all his teammates in the dressing room.
