According to reports in Spain, Aston Villa are interested in Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos.
According to XCatalunya, with Unai Emery aware that the youngster is fighting for playing time at the La Liga club, the Villans are now keen on bringing him to the Premier League.
According to the report, Aston Villa is already “preparing an offer” for Ceballos and is willing to spend up to €18 million on the move.
The plan is for a January transfer, as the English club wants to strengthen their squad for the second half of the season, when they will play crucial games in the UEFA Conference League.
According to reports, despite the fact that Ceballos renewed his contract with Real Madrid last summer, his position in the squad does not ensure his future at the Santiago Bernabeu.
So Aston Villa are not only ‘convinced’ about trying to sign him, but they also want to pay him €8 million.
Ceballos just had two appearances for Real Madrid this season, totaling 49 minutes on the pitch, so it’s understandable if he’s drawn to a fresh challenge.
