Real Madrid have yet to talk to the soon-to-free midfielder about a new contract
While the uncertainty over Dani Ceballos continues to trouble the parties involved, it is reported that Real Madrid have yet to speak with the midfielder about a contract extension, according to Mario Cortegana for The Athletic.
Ceballos is among a number of Real Madrid players along with Karim Benzema, Toni Kroos, Luka Modric, Nacho Fernandez, Marco Asensio and Mariano Diaz, whose contracts expire at the end of the season.
With so many extensions pending, it's understandable that management is scrutinizing each option, and from their current position, there are two plausible options.
First, a major overhaul is planned this summer, or second, management can slow it down by giving veterans a year-long extension and with that, newcomers can easily easily familiarize themselves with the club's traditions.
When it comes to Ceballos, the 26-year-old has attracted a lot of interest and it's certainly not limited to La Liga. It turns out that thanks to his experience playing in England, a number of Premier League sides have expressed interest.
In Spain, Atletico Madrid is known to be interested, but as previously reported, Diego Simeone's team no longer intends to sign the midfielder.
At this time, the midfielder continues to wait for the approach of Real Madrid. Over the past few weeks, Ceballos has shown he can be a huge asset and while he's not the same replacement for Kroos or Modric in that regard, he is still a valuable player. in the list.
Interestingly, another player who also shared the same fate as Ceballos is Marco Asensio. However, unlike the midfielder, the Spain international had an offer on the table but it turned out he was not satisfied with the existing offer.
