Real Madrid midfielder likely to leave club after Nacho and Joselu

Real Madrid have made headlines this summer with a series of high-profile departures. The club has already bid farewell to stalwarts like Nacho, Joselu, and the retiring legend, Toni Kroos. However, it appears that the exodus from the Santiago Bernabéu is far from over.

According to Spanish radio station Carrusel, the next player on the brink of leaving is Dani Ceballos. The midfielder, who has struggled to secure regular playing time under Carlo Ancelotti, is reportedly seeking more minutes elsewhere.

Ceballos’ desire for consistent game time has fueled speculation about his next move. A return to Spain, and more specifically to his former club Real Betis, seems to be the most likely destination. Real Betis, a club where Ceballos played at between 2014-2017 before joining Los Blancos.

This potential move would not only offer Ceballos the opportunity to reignite his career but also allow him to return to a familiar environment where he is highly valued and loved by the fans. For Real Betis, the acquisition of Ceballos would bolster their midfield options and add creativity and depth to their squad.
