Real Madrid Confidencial Florentino and Dani Ceballos, Face to Face about Their Future: 'Dani, You Will Leave If...'
The president and the midfielder have met to discuss the future of the Andalusian player
Dani Ceballos' future has been the talk of the town in every transfer window in recent years. This summer there were rumors of his departure again, with Betis as the main destination. But he ended up staying at Real Madrid, as Ancelotti doesn't want to let him go.
He started the season with few minutes and an injury kept him off the field for weeks. But little by little he has turned his situation around, appearing more frequently in the starting line-ups. Taking advantage of this, Florentino has met with him.
According to leaks from Valdebebas, Florentino has said “Dani, you will leave if you ask me, but here you'll continue to succeed.” At Real Madrid they are clear about it and continue to count on him, as the president has assured him. They count on him and see him as an important player in the long term.
Although rumors were beginning to appear regarding the winter transfer market, it seems that these have dissipated in the last few days. The fact that he has started to enter the rotation shows that he has a place, especially after being first team player in such an important game as the one against Atalanta.
Real Madrid finds Ceballos as a substitute for Kroos
Since Kroos announced his retirement before the end of last season, Madrid have been looking for a replacement. They were left without the player who was in charge of building the game from the back. He gave meaning to the attacks and was capable of getting out of pressure and launching transitions.
In the first few months of this season, Ancelotti has been looking for the key to not miss the German. And the truth is that Ceballos is the player who is best assuming these roles. With him on the field, they have more capacity to overcome high pressure.
That's why it doesn't seem that the departure of the player from Utrera is on the table right now. Although it is true that he does want more minutes, they are not going to close the doors on him. They only ask that he brings an attractive offer under his arm.
