Real Madrid defender Dani Carvajal has claimed that he will become a better play due to the competition provided by new teammate Danilo.
Despite Carvajal's fine form in recent seasons, Real parted with a reported £18m to sign Danilo from Porto earlier this summer, but the Spaniard insists that he is happy to battle the new recruit for the right-back spot.
"It's one more challenge [for me]," the 23-year-old told reporters. "But it's a motivation for me to improve daily. Danilo is one of the best defenders in the world.
"He's a great kid and he's fun to be around. He is a huge asset and that is why they brought him in, so that we can compete for the [full-back] position and [help] Madrid win a title."
Danilo replaced Carvajal at half time as Real cruised to a 4-1 victory over Manchester City in Melbourne on Friday.
