Included it has compared it with two historical figures of the team rossonero: "This that go to say it is necessary to take it with care, but is a mix between Pirlo and Gattuso. With me it played of mediocentro, but also can be a 10. It is one of which leaves the soul: if they do not give him the balloon, goes to look for it".

During his go through the Betis, stood out that it did not intimidate in front of the fans: "The 45.000 of the Villamarín did not overwhelm him for nothing, played like a veteran. Always it wanted the balloon and now has not changed. Sometimes it played together with Fabián, complemented perfectly. A defect? It does not mark a lot of goals".

Ceballos Could play in the FC Barcelona

Also it sustained that the Barcelona directive had interested in him sometime: "it Convinced to Zidane with a big party in the Bernabéu, also wanted it the Barça. I advised him go to the club culé, that was renewing with Iniesta and Xavi at the end of his cycle, would have had more space. The Madrid with Modric, Kroos, Casemiro offered him less opportunities, but he has level to play also with the whites".

Regarding his possible destinations, signals that the best is the Calcium, even more than the English football, that plays with a distinct style: "The Premier has rhythms very elevated for him. Dani Would work better in the Calcium, where the quality goes by in front. And he has to spare: it would be perfect for the Milan".
