Dani Ceballos (winner)
Dani Ceballos is likely fighting a lost cause anyway but he would benefit *slightly* from Federico Valverde being sold. Given that the Spaniard has made just one La Liga start all season, he is likely on his way out of the club anyway but on the off-chance he does stay, there's no denying he would get slightly more chances next season.
In my opinion, though, Ceballos is walking on thin ice between now and the end of the season and must impress if he wishes to keep his place.
Brahim Diaz (winner)
Brahim Diaz and Federico Valverde both started in the most recent La Liga match against Athletic Club. There is no bad blood between the two star players but Fede is favoured over Brahim Diaz.
Diaz has the versatility to play most positions in the midfield and attack. Therefore, if Fede is sold in the summer, Brahim would benefit from more game-time.
