Real Madrid secured an important 2-0 win over Getafe, once again benefiting from Barcelona’s slip-up to move just one point behind them, with a game remaining at Mestalla.
Despite a number of injuries, Real Madrid has proven its ability to adapt, with the absence of key players prompting several substitutes to step up and prove themselves.
One of these players was Dani Ceballos, who has become a more important figure in the team after recent matches. In today’s game, Ceballos put in an outstanding performance and was among the team’s best players.
The Spaniard is now a regular in the squad due to the injuries of Camavinga and Tchouaméni, and he is well aware that this is a crucial moment in his career. Therefore, Ceballos is focused on maintaining a consistent level of performance to ensure he remains in the starting lineup.
According to the Spanish newspaper “Defensa Central”, Carlo Ancelotti and his technical staff were surprised by the level Ceballos has shown. In fact, the player may become a key part of the Italian coach’s plans in the coming period.
Ceballos was close to leaving the club on more than one occasion, but as he got more minutes, it became clear that he wanted to stay at the Santiago Bernabéu. With that, his situation changed dramatically, opening up new opportunities for him within the team.
