What does he mean? Ceballos sparks controversy at Real Madrid

Uncertainty once again looms over the future of Spanish midfielder Dani Ceballos at Real Madrid, despite his contract until June 2027. This comes amid strong interest from his former club, Real Betis, which has made no secret of its desire to sign him.

However, Real Madrid’s management is not enthusiastic about letting Ceballos go, believing he can provide a valuable addition as a substitute, able to cover multiple roles in midfield, especially in light of injuries or a busy schedule.

Given this situation, his departure could force the club to look for a replacement, complicating any deal for his departure.

Amid this uncertainty, the 28-year-old player posted a photo on his Instagram account on Saturday evening, showing himself performing physical exercises in preparation for his return to training at Valdebebas, the team’s headquarters.

The caption on the photo read: “Last day of training before the start.” However, what really caught the attention wasn’t the text, but the song he chose to accompany the post, titled “Quiero ser libre,” meaning “I want to be free.” This sparked a buzz among Real Madrid fans on social media, with the player possibly indicating his desire to leave.
