Olympique Marseille have made contact with the representatives of Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos to discuss potential personal terms, as the French club looks to strengthen their midfield ahead of the new Ligue 1 season.
According to sources close to the negotiations, Marseille are seriously considering a move for the 28-year-old Spaniard, who has struggled for consistent minutes under Carlo Ancelotti at Real Madrid. Though no official bid has been made yet, this early approach signals growing interest and could lead to formal negotiations soon.
Ceballos, known for his vision, ball control, and ability to dictate tempo, is reportedly open to a new challenge if it means more playing time. Marseille, under new management and aiming to bounce back after an inconsistent season, see Ceballos as a potential leader in the heart of their midfield.
For Ceballos, a move to Ligue 1 could offer both regular football and a chance to reignite his career in a competitive league. For Marseille, signing a player with Champions League and international experience would be a significant statement of ambition.
This approach also reflects a growing trend in European football, where players on the fringes of top clubs are finding new opportunities in other major leagues—not just for playing time, but also for growth and impact.
No agreement has been reached as of yet, and Real Madrid are understood to be evaluating the situation internally. With several weeks remaining in the transfer window, both clubs and the player’s camp are expected to hold further discussions.
