Aston Villa has been strongly linked to the potential signing of Real Madrid’s midfielder, Dani Ceballos, who is expected to depart from the Spanish club for consistent first-team action.
According to a report from Fichajes, Aston Villa is now resolute in their pursuit of Ceballos and is reportedly ready to make an offer of approximately €30 million for the Spanish international.
Ceballos has a prior association with manager Unai Emery during his loan spell at Arsenal. The prospect of reuniting with the Spanish manager could be an appealing proposition for the player.
Aston Villa’s manager has demonstrated a high regard for Ceballos, indicating that he could secure significant playing time should he make the move to the West Midlands club.
The team is actively seeking to bolster their midfield with increased technical prowess and depth. Summer signing Youri Tielemans has not consistently performed at his best, making additional midfield options a priority.
Ceballos boasts prior experience in the Premier League, which could facilitate a seamless transition.
Currently competing in the UEFA Europa Conference League, Aston Villa possesses the quality to vie for Europa League qualification this season. The prospect of regular playing time at a club of their stature is likely to be an enticing opportunity for the player.
