Ceballos moves away… and at Real Madrid optimism grows with Asensio

Real Madrid is focused on the second leg of the semi-final against Manchester City. Players, coaching staff and leaders, but it does not take away for the open fronts that the entity has are being solved or, at least clarifying. Football does not stop and the last few weeks have served to certify the continuity of Kroos and Modric, as well as the approach of postures, total with Marco Asensio and the distance to an agreement with Daniel Ceballos.

Real Madrid’s philosophy regarding the seven renewals of players who were ending their contract has always been the same: “In the end, those we want to renew will renew”. They have not changed it. Everything indicates that the final result will be five to two in favor of the renewals, pending Nacho’s final decision.

In parallel, the leaders of Real Madrid have not stopped working on the signing of Jude Belligham, reaching an agreement in principle with the Englishman, a priority footballer for months as a recruit for next season. Fran García sealed his return in January, becoming the first reinforcement, so the one from Borussia Dortmund will be the second as soon as the German team closes its season.

Marco Asensio has managed to reverse the situation. First with the fans, those who have loudly asked for his renewal, and then with the leaders, who have known how to value what the forward contributes and the performance he is offering every time he steps on the pitch and who have brought him to match his best goalscoring record as a madridista with games still to come.

The leaders of the Madrid entity have made a second proposal to the striker, in a gesture that demonstrates the club’s desire to continue counting on Asensio. The move has been welcomed by the third top scorer in the league. To the player different teams have approached him, the latest being Aston Villa, just as MARCA announced, but the priority has always been to stay in white.

Ceballos walks away

Asensio feels recognized and the club does not want to lose a player who guarantees quality goals and minutes. Ancelotti, for his part, has always opted for the striker’s continuity, but the negotiations have always been between the club and the footballer exclusively. The leaders also feel optimistic about the signing of the agreement

Asensio looks for and wants more minutes, but He knows that he has the trust of the club and the coach, key factors. In the month of January, Florentino Pérez himself told him that there would be no problem with his continuity, something that is very close to being a reality.

The situation is not the same with Dani Ceballos. The club sent him a first renewal offer three weeks ago that has not convinced the footballer or his environment. They expected more. In fact, the player has listened to Betis (tax issues play against) and has a significant supply from Italy (very favorable taxation), with Atlético waiting for what might happen.

Right now the continuity of the Andalusian seems more than complicated. He has been the last player (Mariano does not count) to receive the renewal proposal and The response obtained makes us think that his future does not go through the Bernabéu. In any case, communication is still open, but not only with Real Madrid.
