"New Cross" broke out for the third time, Real Madrid really can t do without him

According to the well-known Spanish media "World Sports", Ceballos has won the recognition of Xavi Alonso through his recent performance, and Real Madrid has added an important bargaining chip to its rotation.

The third self-redemption, Ceballos saved Real Madrid 70 million

Serving as a substitute for Real Madrid for a long time, Ceballos does not look dazzling, but he has broken out in the middle of the season many times, saving the Galaxy Battleship that was plagued by injuries. During the coaching periods of Zidane and Ancelotti, Ceballos proved his ability to withstand pressure many times. Now it's Xavi Alonso's turn to coach Real Madrid, and Ceballos's breakout came earlier than before. The Spaniard has started 4 times in the past period (a total of 7 appearances).

During the Club World Cup, Ceballos played very little time and was once marginalized. In the summer window of 2025, Real Madrid was infinitely close to Subimendi, but in the end it failed to take shape due to price issues. Now, Ceballos has improved his rotation, which is equivalent to saving 70 million euros for Los Blancos.

The universal patch can solve the urgent need, and the midfielder will need to be upgraded in the future.

As the universal patch for Real Madrid's midfielder, Ceballos can cope with most La Liga teams, but his role in the "high-end game" is limited, which has been proven last season. The main reason why Real Madrid did not introduce a midfielder is that Florentino and Xabi Alonso still have expectations for Chuameni and Camavinga. If the two French stars cannot prove themselves this season, Real Madrid will introduce a new midfielder in the 2026 summer window, and Ceballos' white career may come to an end.
