The Wales international has received a mixed reaction from the Real Madrid supporters over the past 18 months and some of them have recently expressed their anger on social media after he was able to recover from a nagging calf problem to represent Wales.

He’s been around 50 days without playing with the team and he’s missed six matches, and then suddenly they see him playing with Wales, and playing very well by the way, and they see him fit and in good shape.

Dani Ceballos does not regret leaving Real Madrid this summer

The 23-year-old midfielder joined Arsenal on a season-long loan deal earlier this summer following a successful European Under-21 campaign with Spain where he was named as the player of the tournament.

Since then, he has already made a strong impression at the north London club with a goal and a couple of assists while he has also contributed with the defensive side of his game.

Zidane disappointed with Real Madrid’s stalemate against Real Valladolid

Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane has admitted his disappointment after his team settled for a 1-1 draw against Real Valladolid at the Bernabeu. The Madrid giants were the dominant side throughout the game but they were made to toil to secure just the solitary point from the league encounter.

Karim Benzema appeared to have handed Los Blancos with the maximum points after scoring in the 82nd minute but the happiness was short-lived with Sergio Navarro levelling the proceedings for the visitors before stoppage time. Speaking after the game, Zidane acknowledged that the draw leaves a bad taste in the mouth despite the fact that the second half performance was not the best.

Unai Emery speaks on Real Madrid midfielder amid transfer speculation

Arsenal boss Unai Emery has praised the qualities of Dani Ceballos when asked about the midfielder’s potential move to the Emirates this summer. The Spain international is currently in the ranks of Real Madrid but he has been touted to make the move to the north London giants on a temporary basis this summer.

Speaking in a press conference, Emery was asked whether Ceballos could be making the switch to the Gunners this summer and he replied with a neutral tone saying:“I don’t want to speak about the names but Ceballos is a very good player.” Meanwhile, when pressed further regarding the potential new arrivals, Emery suggested that the club are looking to land at least three or four additions before the transfer deadline next month.

He said: “Our target is to achieve three, four players to really improve our team and squad now. We are being very demanding and we are also first speaking about the possibility to sign very big players, very expensive. The first player in our list is the first target and after, if we cannot have that then [we try to sign] the second, but thinking every time that they are going to improve our team.”

Arsenal have remained relatively quiet during the course of the summer transfer window and they have landed just Gabriel Martinelli from Ituano. However, reports have indicated that the club are discussing moves for the likes of Kieran Tierney, Wilfried Zaha and William Saliba and a deal for the latter appears close to completion.

Still, the move may not necessarily benefit the club, considering Saint-Etienne are expected to retain the defender’s services on loan for the 2019/2020 season. Arsenal are currently preparing for their third pre-season friendly of the summer against Bayern Munich. Emery is expected to field most of the senior players against the German giants.
