Real Madrid has already made a definitive decision regarding the future of Dani Ceballos: the Andalusian midfielder will not leave the club in this summer transfer window unless an offer of 20 million euros is received, an amount considered improbable at Valdebebas.

The recent statements made by the player in Sevilla at the end of his vacation have caused some unease within the white entity. The player from Utrera expressed nostalgia for his time at Betis and hinted at a possible return to the Verdiblanco club, a comment that did not sit well among the Madrid faithful, especially since he had not yet held a formal discussion with the sports management regarding his situation.

Ceballos is Counted On

However, that meeting has now taken place. Both Florentino Pérez and José Ángel Sánchez have informed him that he is part of the plans under the new coach, Xabi Alonso, who wishes to have him for the upcoming season. The midfielder is scheduled to rejoin training on August 4, when the team will begin preparations for the 2025-2026 season.

The club has made it clear that they will only consider his departure if a club presents an economic proposal that meets Madrid's requirements, and so far, Betis (the main interested party) has stated that they will not make that financial effort.

Ceballos, therefore, will have to follow the instructions of the new coaching staff and compete for a place in Alonso's lineup. At Real Madrid, there are no longer doubts: his continuity is assured, at least for now. The ball is in the player's court.
