Real Betis star Dani Ceballos is reportedly nearing a move to Real Madrid after talks have "intensified" regarding a long-term contract.
According to Sergio Santos Chozas of AS, Ceballos is set to join on a five or six-year deal, of which he'll spend the first remaining with Betis on loan, albeit Los Blancos may accelerate his arrival at the Santiago Bernabeu on the back of impressive performances for Spain's under-21s this summer.
Ceballos is said to be keen on the idea of remaining with Betis for another season, though, to ensure he continues to develop well.
