Real Madrid has been left with a decision to take the future of Dani Ceballos in the last week of the transfer window. The Andalusian midfielder is enthusiastic about a movement, with Olympique Marseille prepared to offer him a landing site.
Ceballos has already given the green light to a deal, while Real Madrid weighs their options. Marseille would like to take a loan with an option to buy from around € 10-15 million, while Los Blancos a Priori demands € 15 million in advance to make the move. Ceballos is aware that his chances are slim anyway, but he would like to do what he can do to break into the Spain team prior to the World Cup of next year and knows that he will not have enough playing time under Xabi Alonso.
Despite the planning of Ceballos in a remaining role, Alonso has made it clear that he is not in favor of his exit, according to Cadena Ser. Above all, he does not want a loan movement to happen, the feeling that this will not finance a replacement that he wants, nor help ensure that he has sufficient depth in midfield.
His choice would be for Ceballos to stay in the club and is of the opinion that, unless there is a clear financial motivation, they should hold them to the 29-year-old. Rodra van ESPN adds that Los Blancos wants a replacement and an offer of € 15 million to leave him.
Ceballos is in the last two years of his contract, and in a purely tax sense a sale would be a logical conclusion if they are not planning to expand his deal. However, Alonso's position is understandable, because some already feel that he is in midfield, with only Eduardo Camavinga, Aurelien Tchouameni and Fede Valverde well at home in playing for the defense in a two.
