"Aston Villa manager Unai Emery is reportedly pushing for the club to sign Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos after missing out on Conor Gallagher. According to Fichajes, Villa were keen on Gallagher, though he's just ended up leaving Atletico Madrid for a move to Tottenham instead. Now it seems Emery wants AVFC to turn their attention towards Ceballos at Real Madrid, with the pair having previously worked together at Arsenal."
"Fichajes suggest that Real could be open to letting Ceballos go for around 10-20m, though it seems their preference would be to do this deal in the summer rather than now. It remains to be seen if Villa will instead push to get Ceballos in now, but one imagines they could really do with a new addition in that area of the pitch as soon as possible."
Unai Emery wants Aston Villa to pursue Dani Ceballos from Real Madrid after Villa missed out on Conor Gallagher. Villa were interested in Gallagher, who moved from Atletico Madrid to Tottenham. Emery and Ceballos previously worked together at Arsenal. Ceballos, 29, has not been a regular at Real Madrid and may be open to a transfer for more first-team football. Real Madrid could accept a fee in the region of €10–20m but prefer a summer sale. Villa face a choice between attempting an immediate move or seeking alternatives if Madrid insist on waiting.
