July 27th, according to Romano, Ceballos has still not found a new club a month after terminating his contract with Real Madrid, and Ajax has withdrawn from the race.
Ceballos, who terminated his contract with Real Madrid a month ago, one year early, has still not found a new club. The Utrera native had wanted to return to his old club, Real Betis, from where he started his journey to Madrid. However, the player and the club have been unable to reach an agreement.
Although both sides tried to make the negotiations seem normal, the various aspects never aligned. It is perplexing that a free agent, with recognized ability, who is willing to join Real Betis, has been unable to reach an agreement with the team that has desired him for many years. In contrast, Isco's transfer was much smoother back then. For Ceballos, however, the club has been slow to move forward, citing salary cap issues. The player wants to join Real Betis, but also demands that the club make certain efforts to compensate him for giving up his last season at Real Madrid.
People can't help but wonder why Ceballos can't yet train under Pellegrini, waiting for the club to free up salary space and registration spots by selling players? Meanwhile, other options he had, such as Ajax, have fallen through – other teams have run out of patience. Real Betis's sporting director, Fajardo, emphasized a few days ago that he didn't want the negotiations to turn into a soap opera, but it seems both sides are heading in that direction.
In response to this situation, Ceballos decided to make a change. According to journalist Romano, the midfielder has decided to sign with Lian Sports Group, an agency founded by agent Fali Ramadani.
