Ceballos Speaks out about His Future with a Message that Shocks Ancelotti

Real Madrid has a really hectic second half of the season ahead. Carlo Ancelotti's men have managed to correct the delicate situation they were in by mid-November. Having regained the second place in LaLiga and with many chances of reaching the knockout rounds of the Champions League, the coach analyzes his players.

January will decide a good part of the competitive aspirations of the white club for the current season. Taking that into account, the coaching staff wants to count on the players who are in their best form: Dani Ceballos could be one of the chosen ones.

The good performance that the '19' from Utrera has shown coming off the bench during December warranted a necessary first-team place against Sevilla in the last 2024 game. His work in that game also met the expectations of Ancelotti, who received a very strong message during the break.

While most of his players are on vacation in different parts of the world, Ceballos doesn't seem to want a single day off. His latest social media posts show him very active in his home gym, working on his physical preparation as if there were no vacations.

Determined to succeed

This is the message that catches the Madrid coach's attention the most. Dani Ceballos has decided to continue with his personal training during the Christmas break to not lose competitive rhythm. The Andalusian midfielder's declaration of intent is very clear: he wants more leadership and minutes for the remainder of the 24/25 season.

Carlo Ancelotti has a meeting scheduled with him when they return to Ciudad Real Madrid to inform him of a possible change regarding his situation on the team. Injuries, repositionings, and rotations have opened up a spot in the midfield that the '19' is increasingly securing... even ahead of Luka Modric.

"We're still working at Christmas," assures a particularly 'plugged-in' Dani Ceballos. This message reaches Carlo Ancelotti, who already considers him more for his tactical plans, and it could also be directed at Real Betis. It's worth noting that the green-and-white team has been pursuing the possibility of acquiring his services for several summers.

The differences in the transfer demanded by the white executives and the money the green-and-white team was willing to pay have prevented any operation. At least until now, as Real Betis continues to push to get him at a reduced price: "Let's see if he comes here already. He's making himself wanted," responds Isco about this possible transfer.
