aSaudi Arabia’s ambitious project to elevate its footballing standards ahead of the 2034 World Cup has led to increased interest in signing high-profile players.

Now, according to Fichajes, the latest name to emerge on their radar is Real Madrid’s Dani Ceballos, who has grown into an important player under Carlo Ancelotti this season.

The outlet suggests that Saudi clubs are prepared to go all out to secure his services, with an offer potentially reaching €30 million.

Madrid is the hunting ground

The Saudi Pro League has been aggressively targeting top European talents in recent years, including Vinicius Jr., aiming to enhance the league’s reputation on the global stage.

With Ceballos showcasing strong performances and establishing himself as a crucial figure in Real Madrid’s midfield, Saudi officials believe he would be a valuable addition.

The midfielder’s ability to dictate play, combined with his technical skills and growing influence in big matches, has made him an attractive prospect for a potential summer transfer.

Ceballos is committed to Real Madrid

Despite the financial incentives on offer, Ceballos does not appear keen on leaving the Santiago Bernabeu.

His form in recent months has earned him a more prominent role under Ancelotti, who values his work rate, composure, and ability to control the tempo of games.

The 28-year-old has shown significant improvement physically and tactically, making him a reliable option for Real Madrid in high-stakes encounters.

From the club’s perspective, letting go of a midfielder who is reaching his peak would not be a logical move. Real Madrid acknowledge his progress and see him as an asset for the present and future.

Unless an unexpected change occurs, the Spanish giants have no intention of selling him anytime soon. With his best years still ahead, Ceballos remains committed to his role at the club, and for now, a switch to Saudi Arabia seems unlikely.
