Real Madrid player makes U-turn and wants to leave this summer

It looks like there could be a late exit from Real Madrid this summer, after it had looked like the squad was already set for the season. Things can change quickly in football though and it looks like that is exactly what has happened for one of the club's players, as he continues to struggle for playing time at Santiago Bernabeu.

The player in question is none other than Dani Ceballos. Earlier in the summer, it had looked like the Spaniard had decided to remain in the Spanish capital and give his Real Madrid career one last chance.

But as reported by MARCA, there is a sudden change of opinion of Ceballos regarding his future. The player has decided in recent days that his time at Real Madrid should come to an end.

Multiple reliable outlets have suggested that Real Madrid are open to transfer offers for Ceballos in the last days of the summer transfer window. Whether they would look for a replacement or not remains to be seen.

Real Madrid player makes U-turn and wants to leave this summer

Ceballos has featured a couple of times for Real Madrid this season so far but only as a late substitute. And to be honest, it is hard to see him have a starring role in this team, unless there were injury problems.

Leaving Real Madrid might be the right option for Ceballos. But his leaving this late in the transfer window would make things complicated for Real Madrid.

One has to remember that Toni Kroos retired at the end of last season. Luka Modric is also set to celebrate his 39th birthday next month. This midfield is not as strong as it had been in previous years. Let's see if the club receive a satisfactory offer to sign Ceballos before the end of the deadline day.
