Arsenal<\/a> have reached an agreement with Real Madrid<\/a> to sign Dani Ceballos<\/a> on a season-long loan, according to BBC Sport journalist David Ornstein<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Real Madrid Reach Agreement With Arsenal Over Dani Ceballos<\/h2>\n

Season-Long Loan<\/h3>\n

According to Ornstein, Arsenal are set to sign the Spanish Under-21 midfielder on a season-long loan deal.<\/p>\n

The Gunners have been forced to venture into the loan market this season due to reduced financial powers.<\/p>\n

Missing out on the Champions League by one point – and having lost the Europa League final to Chelsea<\/a> – has meant that the London side has had their transfer budget greatly slashed ahead of the 2019-20 season.<\/p>\n

Arsenal boss Unai Emery remains committed to strengthening his squad for his first season in charge. The Spaniard has moved a step closer to doing so with the latest development regarding Ceballos.<\/p>\n

The Spanish Under-21 midfielder was identified as a top target for the Gunners this summer.<\/p>\n

Zinedine Zidane’s plans for a revolution at Real Madrid, spending more than \u00a3200 million this summer, has meant that players have been offloaded in order to balance the books.<\/p>\n

Ceballos, therefore, is one of those set to depart the Bernabeu in order to make funds available.<\/p>\n

A Moral Victor<\/a>y for Arsenal<\/h3>\n

Ceballos has been highly sought after due to a string of impressive performances at the Under-21 European Championships.<\/p>\n

The talented playmaker played a starring role as Spain beat Germany to win the crown.<\/p>\n

Arsenal have had to fight fierce competition from Premier League rivals to obtain Ceballos’ signature.<\/p>\n

According to Football.London<\/a>, both Liverpool<\/a> and Arsenal’s north London rivals Tottenham<\/a> have been linked to the creative playmaker. Similarly, Serie A giants AC Milan<\/a> are also reportedly interested in the midfielder.<\/p>\n

In the modern-day both Liverpool and Spurs are challenging for a Premier League title which seems out of reach for Arsenal; therefore, by beating their top-flight rivals to the talented midfielder will give the Gunners a well-needed confidence boost.<\/p>\n
