In the final days of the summer transfer window, which is becoming increasingly intense, Madrid’s famous club — “Real” continues the process of restructuring its squad. The management aims to increase competition within the team and strengthen preparations for the new season by parting ways with several players who failed to win the trust of head coach Xabi Alonso.
One of these players turned out to be midfielder Dani Ceballos. The “royal club” held talks with “Marseille,” which showed interest in the Spanish footballer, and an agreement was reached. The French club offered to take the player on loan with the obligation of a later transfer for €11 million and an additional €4 million in bonuses.
These conditions suited Madrid, and “Real” agreed to let Ceballos go. However, at the final stage of the process, the footballer himself made a sharp decision.
According to sources, the 29-year-old midfielder was not satisfied with the level of Ligue 1. In his opinion, moving to the French championship would be considered a step backward in his career. That is why he refused to transfer to “Marseille.”
As a result, the previously agreed transfer completely collapsed. This may force “Real” to adjust its transfer strategy for the summer window.
Thus, Dani Ceballos’s future remains undecided. In the coming days, it will become clear whether he stays at “Real” or moves to another club. Fans, meanwhile, are following his next steps with great interest.
