Besiktas are eyeing Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos, and as reported by Turkish media outlet F5 Haber (h/t Mundo Deportivo), they are willing to make a significant offer that would benefit all parties.

At 27, Ceballos is at a crossroads, as his future with Real Madrid under coach Carlo Ancelotti seems uncertain. Ancelotti does not consider him a key player, and this scenario is unlikely to change in the coming season.

As a result, Ceballos is contemplating a move to secure more playing time, something he hasn’t been getting at Real Madrid.

Real Madrid won’t stand in his way until…

The club’s management appears open to the idea of selling Ceballos if a suitable offer is made. While they recognize his value and his role within the team, they are prepared to let him go for the right price.

In that regard, Real Madrid have reportedly set an asking price of at least €20 million for Ceballos. This stance suggests confidence in their ability to find a replacement either from the market or their academy.

As of now, no concrete offers have reached Real Madrid. Real Betis, where Ceballos began his professional career, showed interest, but they are struggling to meet the financial demands.

There is plenty of interest in Ceballos

Meanwhile, there have also been rumours of interest from clubs in the Premier League and Serie A, but nothing has materialised into a solid offer yet.

Atletico Madrid and Girona have also expressed interest, but Real Madrid’s firm stance on the transfer fee is proving to be a stumbling block for potential deals.

Ceballos has communicated his desire to leave to the club, and Real Madrid have made it clear they will not stand in his way if a satisfactory offer comes in.

In summary, Ceballos finds himself in a position where he might leave Real Madrid in search of more playing time. Besiktas are willing to make a financial offer, but they will need to meet Real Madrid’s €20 million valuation.

While the situation remains fluid, Ceballos’ future hangs in the balance as potential suitors weigh their options against Real Madrid’s high demands.
