Real talent wants game time

Arsenal closing in on Ceballos deal - loan move without option to buy suits budget

Dani Ceballos (photo) wants to play “40 games” next season, which would be very difficult to achieve at Real Madrid, because of the huge competition in the squad. At Arsenal FC, the 22-year-old would have better chances for regular game time. Manager Unai Emery is interested in signing his fellow countryman as a replacement for Aaron Ramsey (28), who left the Gunners for Juventus FC this summer.

According to media reports from England and Spain, a transfer is becoming more and more likely, with the Telegraph reporting that Arsenal would agree to take the midfielder on loan without having an option to buy. This fits in with reports that club owner Stan Kroenke only made about £45 million available for new transfers. The 71-year-old will meet with Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez on Wednesday morning to complete the deal, according to Madrid-based newspaper ABC.

Ceballos also prefers a loan switch, as he stated in a radio interview with Onda Cero in early June. His Real contract runs until 2023 and he hopes to get a chance at Los Blancos in the future.
