The Mirror is reporting that Ceballos was eager to secure a return to Arsenal last summer after the Spanish midfielder spent the 2019-20 Premier League season at the north London side.
The same article states that the 24-year-old’s future beyond the end of the current campaign is uncertain given that Ceballos has struggled to hold down a regular starting spot under Mikel Arteta.
According to the same story, Ceballos could return to Real Madrid in the summer when his current loan deal with Arsenal comes to an end.
However, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta still hasn’t decided whether to sign the Spanish midfielder in the 2021 summer transfer window.
