Xabi Alonso has directly intervened to halt a potential exit that could have disrupted Real Madrid's midfield plans. The new Real Madrid coach has explicitly requested Florentino Pérez to keep Dani Ceballos in the squad, despite AC Milan's strong interest. The Italian club had made an offer for the Andalusian midfielder, as reported by Defensa Central. This decision strengthens the coach's confidence in the player from Utrera, who has been on the transfer market edge for several windows.
Although the Italian club viewed the addition of a player with vision and refined technique favorably, Xabi Alonso believes that Ceballos can provide a quality alternative in the Madrid midfield. His ability to connect lines, read the game, and control the tempo are qualities the coach aims to enhance in his new project, which envisions a more associative style.
Xabi Alonso Does Not Want to Lose Dani Ceballos
The coach's trust comes at a crucial moment for Ceballos, who has experienced seasons marked by inconsistency, injuries, and fierce competition in his position. Nevertheless, this new phase presents him with an opportunity to prove himself as a useful player in Madrid's rotation, especially with multiple competitions ahead.
Despite Real Betis also being mentioned as a likely destination, and Milan maintaining interest, everything suggests that Dani will have a new role under Alonso's guidance. Real Madrid is not only focused on impactful signings this summer but also on reclaiming internal talent that can make a difference. The coach's backing could be the boost Ceballos needed to revive his career at the white club.
