Dani Ceballos is reported to have pleaded with Real Madrid not to sell him prior to his season-long loan move to Arsenal in the Premier League.

The midfielder has impressed for the Gunners during the opening phase of the season and he has already bagged a couple of assists from four appearances.

Earlier this month, it had been stated that club president Florentino Perez wants the Spaniard back at the Bernabeu next summer but Marca claims that the midfielder himself is keen on a return to Los Blancos.

As per the publication, Ceballos had personally intervened to block a permanent move away from Los Blancos but his return to the first-team next season will be dependent on his performances with the Gunners.

The midfielder has had a strained relationship with manager Zinedine Zidane during his time in Madrid, but the Spaniard will no doubt knock the first-team door next season, should he remain consistent with his displays this term.
