Florentino Pérez finally finds what he was looking for: Dani Ceballos says goodbye to Real Madrid
Florentino Pérez finds the midfielder he has been searching for, and Dani Ceballos's departure would facilitate the deal
Real Madrid president, Florentino Pérez, is obsessed with the idea of adding a new star to the club's constellation. He knows that the defensive and offensive lines are well covered with the current pieces, but he believes that something is still missing in the midfield. That "something" is a creative midfielder, with the range to help on both sides of the field, and with enough judgment and quality to play for Real Madrid.

At this moment, Xabi Alonso only has Dani Ceballos as a pure playmaker in the squad, which suggests that Florentino Pérez will make an effort next summer. In fact, the club president has already considered several candidates, and it seems that there is a LaLiga player who has convinced him. However, Ceballos would have to leave so the new signing could take his role.
Dani Ceballos discovers Florentino Pérez's plans
Despite being the only playmaker in the locker room, Dani Ceballos's future at Real Madrid is entering a critical phase. As of today, the Andalusian already plays little, so the arrival of more competition for his position could mean his departure. Although he has a contract until 2027, the lack of minutes could hasten his exit from the club.

For Dani Ceballos, leaving Real Madrid isn't ideal, but it would be an opportunity to look for a destination where he could play more, feel important, and relaunch his career. For Xabi Alonso, he isn't essential and, moreover, he isn't part of Florentino Pérez's plans for the midfield. The club president wants to make room for his next big signing: Rodrigo Mendoza.
Rodrigo Mendoza reappears on Real Madrid's agenda
Last year, Florentino Pérez already tried to sign Rodrigo Mendoza for Castilla when he was still playing in the Second Division. Now, seeing his performance at the top level, the president is certain: he has enough quality to play for Real Madrid. In addition, his price of only 20 million is a hard invitation to refuse.
Rodrigo Mendoza is exactly what Real Madrid needs, a young, versatile talent, with a good pass and the ability to link up. He would fit perfectly in the double pivot alongside Tchouaméni. However, with Rodrigo Mendoza in the squad, the one who would be most likely to leave, as we've already said, is Dani Ceballos.
