Dani Carvajal has brought the curtain down on his Real Madrid career, describing his departure as the "end of a marvellous era" following the club's 4-2 victory over Athletic Club.

The veteran defender made his final appearance for the Spanish giants in what proved to be an emotional send-off, closing a chapter on one of the most decorated careers in Real Madrid's recent history.

"It is the end of a marvellous era," Carvajal said, acknowledging the significance of the moment for both himself and the club he has served for so long.
