Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos took a dig at Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone after their recent La Liga victory over Las Palmas, following Simeone's comments about controversial decisions favoring Real in their Copa del Rey match against Celta Vigo. Ceballos hinted that Simeone was still bitter about their two Champions League final losses to Real Madrid. After Ceballos's recent heroics on the pitch, it seems the midfielder also has a knack for delivering fiery lines off the field.
In a recent tense meeting with Real Madrid's board, fans expressed their frustration with the team's midfield options and called for changes to be made. With key players like Jude Bellingham and Federico Valverde being spared criticism, the focus was on Luka Modric, Eduardo Camavinga, and Dani Ceballos. Despite the outcry, the club has no plans to sign anyone during the winter transfer window, leaving manager Carlo Ancelotti with the task of finding a solution with the current roster. Manu Tournoux, a football journalist specialized in French football, provides valuable insight on the matter.
Dani Ceballos, a midfielder for Real Madrid, is looking to leave the club during the final month of the transfer market due to limited playing time. His hometown club Real Betis and AS Monaco are potential options, but Real Madrid's high asking price of €20m is proving to be a major obstacle. With only two days left in the transfer window, Ceballos will have to convince the club to lower their demands if he wants to secure a move.
In a surprising move, Real Madrid have beaten rival club Barcelona to sign 18-year-old Turkish attacking midfielder Arda Guler from Fenerbahce. This signing may have implications for the future of Federico Valverde, who could now be considered expendable. Real Madrid's midfield options have already been bolstered with the renewals of Toni Kroos and Luka Modric, and the additions of Jude Bellingham, Aurelien Tchouameni, Dani Ceballos, and Eduardo Camavinga, making Valverde's spot in the starting XI uncertain. Guler's arrival could push Valverde out of the group and possibly out of the team altogether, with a potential move to Liverpool now unlikely.
In an exciting LaLiga EA Sports match, Real Madrid came out on top against Osasuna with a 4-2 win.

Celta Vigo, on the other hand, are struggling near the bottom of the table and have yet to find their rhythm under Rafael Benitez. The match ended with Real Madrid sealing a convincing victory over their struggling opponents.
