Arsenal's Dani Ceballos was honest in a long interview with 'EFE'. The player has given his opinion on everything from the situation of Sergio Ramos, his possible return to Madrid, to the departure of Özil.

Dani Ceballos (Utrera, 1996) is still a restless and daring player. He shows it on the field and off it. Proof of this is that he is the only Arsenal player who, when he is on the bench, sits on the back of the pitch and not on the seat "I like to be as close to the pitch as possible," he says.

In a year and a half in London he has established himself in the midfield at Arsenal, although he always points to Real Madrid as the great goal of his career.

A goal on hold for the moment, but one that he is preparing for by taking over from the great Spanish midfielders who have triumphed in England. In a talk with Efe, the Utrera player reviews his current situation and takes a look at the past and the present to decipher the steps that have led him to wear

On Mesut Ozil he said " Mesut has given a lot to Arsenal. He hadn't been playing since last year, but it was a surprise to everyone that he wasn't signed up to play in the league". He did recognise that Arteta had a wide squad to choose from, however.

Dani also recognised that Madrid is his ultimate goal and that "I follow Madrid every game if it doesn't coincide with ours. It's a team that started out poorly and then picked up a good dynamic where they were able to get five or six consecutive victories".
