DANI CEBALLOS NEWS

Goes full 90 minutes in finale Ceballos recorded two tackles (one won) and one interception in Saturday's 2-0 win against Real Sociedad.

Impact Ceballos played his first 90 minute match since May 14, having been a rotational option to end the season. He suffered two injuries that saw him miss some time, which resulted in 15 starts in 23 La Liga appearances. He failed to make it on to the scoresheet, producing low numbers in the attack while also only making 41 tackles (21 won). Since the midfielder is guaranteed for another two seasons, he will likely have to fight for a decent role following a subpar year.

Makes return Sunday Ceballos recorded no stats in Sunday's 1-0 win over Deportivo Alaves.

Impact Ceballos came on in the 91st minute and helped Real Madrid keep possession in the final moments of Sunday's win over Alaves. It was his return from a long-term leg injury that kept him out of the last eight matches in all competitions. He will aim for more minutes against Bilbao on Sunday as he continues to rebuild fitness. He was a regular starter before the injury and could have a role for the Merengues in the final stretch of the season.

Returns to bench Ceballos (leg) is on the bench for Sunday's clash against Alaves.

Impact Ceballos was announced back available for Sunday's game after recovering from a leg injury that kept him out for two months.

Available to fave Alaves Ceballos (leg) is an option for Sunday's match against Alaves, according to manager Carlo Ancelotti. "He's available for tomorrow [Sunday] and for Wednesday."

Impact Ceballos is once again fit after a decent absence, last playing Feb. 23 due to a leg injury. This is solid news, as the team continues to gain members back before their critical UCL bout Wednesday. He has started in 14 of his 23 appearances this season but will likely see a bench spot to start, not being risked immediately.

Not called up Ceballos (leg) wasn't called up ahead of Tuesday's trip to Arsenal.

Impact Ceballos hoped to return for the first leg against Arsenal, but was unable to do so. The midfielder wasn't called up and will now hope to target a Sunday trip to Alaves, or the second leg against Arsenal for his return.

Impact Ceballos picked up an injury in mid-February, and if he ends up returning to face Arsenal, he would be in line with the initial two-month recovery timeline. That said, even if he's back, he's not likely to play a big role in midfield, especially if everyone is healthy. He's a depth option behind Federico Valverde, Aurelien Tchouameni, Eduardo Camavinga and Luka Modric.

Sidelined two months Ceballos (leg) could miss up to two months of action due to his recent leg injury, according to Guillermo Rai of The Athletic.

Impact Ceballos has already been ruled out for one match due to his leg injury but the issues seem to be much worse, as he is now expected to miss around two months. This would leave him out until some time in April, missing a solid chunk of time and a few crucial matches, including both leagues of their UCL tie with Atletico Madrid. He will hope to heal up as quickly as possible, with Aduardo Camavinga and Luka Modric seeing more time while he is absent.

Records assist Ceballos assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal) and one chance created in Tuesday's 3-2 victory versus Manchester City.

Impact Ceballos had an up-and-down match, to say the least, Tuesday. He would compile a solid outing in the defense with his four tackles but that would soon become unrecognizable after he committed a penalty that would result in a goal for City in the 80th minute. However, he would later correct his mistakes, earning an assist which helped fuel their comeback. This was his first UCL goal contribution this season in seven appearances (three starts).

Impact Ceballos suffered an ankle injury in early September right after his first start of the campaign in a 2-0 win over Betis on Sep. 1, but the central midfielder is back in training. The medical staff stated that Ceballos is "100 percent ready to play," so it wouldn't be surprising if he cracks the squad for the match against Celta on Saturday right before playing Borussia Dortmund on Sep. 22 in the UEFA Champions League.
