Real Madrid Confidencial The Fact That Elevates Ceballos to the Level of Modric and Kroos
Ceballos shows a fact that nobody expected and that positions him as a player on par with Kroos and Modric
One of the players who caused the most conversation at the white club was Dani Ceballos, at least at the start of the season. In this regard, the Sevillian footballer gradually became one of the most important players in Ancelotti's team. This is due not only to his great influence in the midfield but also to the data that has recently come to light.
The footballer from Utrera has been one of the players who has stood out the most in a specific statistic, which is progressive passes. In numerical terms, he is the player, along with Luka Modric, who ranks in the 95th percentile or higher in this aspect. This speaks to the great importance he has assumed, even with Toni Kroos's absence in the white team.
While he hasn't matched the German's numbers, which have been so important in recent seasons, he has indeed made great strides. Now there has been an improvement in the team's offensive development, thanks to the great level of the player from Utrera.
An Unstoppable Ceballos
The player has stood out in the midfield for his great dribbling and, above all, for his ball distribution. Something the white team lacked at the start of the season and that, little by little, Ancelotti justified.
In the current season, despite not being a starter in the first matches, he already has more than 1,300 minutes in 27 games. However, the level and, above all, the quality of the footballer on the field can't be fully captured through statistics. A factor to consider that carries great weight for the team's development.
The great beneficiaries of all this have been the forwards, such as Vinícius and Mbappé, who have significantly improved their goal-scoring progress.
He Will Remain Important
Logically, with these numbers, it is unlikely that he will lose his starting position, especially considering that he has addressed one of the team's major shortcomings. Moreover, these figures could improve as the season progresses, entering the crucial part of it in the Champions League and La Liga.
