Real Madrid transfer news: Juventus 'lining up offer' for 'unsettled' Los Blancos midfielder

Juventus are reportedly preparing an offer for Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos.

There is currently a host of speculation surrounding Ceballos's future, with Real Madrid said to be willing to let the Spain international leave the club during this summer's transfer window.

Los Blancos are thought to want £20m for Ceballos, believing that to be a fair valuation considering that the midfielder played an important role for the Spanish giants during the 2024-25 campaign.

The 28-year-old made 44 appearances for Real Madrid last term, but he struggled for action at the 2025 Club World Cup, playing just 70 minutes of football at the competition under new head coach Xabi Alonso.

AC Milan were credited with an interest in Ceballos earlier this summer, while Real Betis continue to be linked with their former player, but the Seville outfit are currently focusing on the signing of Manchester United's Antony.

Juventus 'preparing offer' for Real Madrid's Ceballos

According to Fichajes, Juventus view Ceballos as the ideal player to boost their midfield this summer, and the Old Lady are currently preparing to place an offer on the table.

The report claims that Juventus are willing to pay £10m for the midfielder, but it remains to be seen whether Real Madrid are willing to accept what is seemingly a 50% reduction on their valuation of him.

Ceballos made the move to the Spanish capital from Real Betis in the summer of 2017.

The midfielder has made 192 appearances for the capital giants, scoring seven goals and registering 16 assists in the process, and he has another two years left to run on his contract at Bernabeu.

Is Ceballos pushing to leave Real Madrid?

Ceballos is believed to be concerned over his playing time under Alonso next season, as he was only used as a substitute in his four appearances at the Club World Cup.

Real Madrid could move for another midfielder before the end of the summer transfer window, meanwhile, which would push Ceballos further down the pecking order.

The midfielder will find it difficult to call time on his Los Blancos career, but the chance to become a regular at a team of Juve's ilk would surely appeal, and for £10m, it could turn out to be an excellent piece of business by the Old Lady.
