Real Madrid player says Carlo Ancelotti will decide future with less than a month left in transfer window

Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos has left the door open to an exit this summer, although he has noted that he wants success at the Santiago Bernabeu. The 27-year-old featured little last season.

Ceballos he has been a key part of Los Blancos' pre-season, with Eduardo Camavinga, Aurelien Tchouameni and Fede Valverde returning later due to their holidays. After getting little playing time last season, his position in the team remains in doubt.

“There are still days in the transfer market… I don't think there will be much movement,” he said Relief.

Several reports have indicated that Ceballos is eager to leave, but has yet to find an offer that suits him. He explained that if he can get the minutes he needs, he will stay – and if not, there is time in the transfer market.

“The coach knows what I want. The pre-season helped me gain confidence. Ancelotti knows what I ask of him. He also asks me things,” said Ceballos.

“The minutes are earned on the field. 10, 15 or 20 minutes with this shirt is much more than 10 games with another. That's what Zidane said. The easiest thing is to throw in the towel, but I want to have minutes and succeed here.”

Ceballos will be told allowed to leave for the right offer, But as one of the five natural midfielders, not including Jude Bellingham, Los Blancos will not let him go cheap. Last season Ceballos played only 864 minutes, and started only 8 games, much less than half of what he played the year before, when he signed a new four-year deal until 2027.
