Real Madrid are no longer considering the exit of midfielder Dani Ceballos, following his failed switch to Olympique Marseille. It appeared all was agreed for a move to the South Coast of France, but Ceballos put the move on hold at the last minute<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Marseille were unwilling to wait, and pulled the plug on the deal after two days of talks with Real Madrid. The deal would have seen a loan move with an obligation to buy worth around \u20ac15m to Los Blancos, but Ceballos\u2019 doubts scuppered the operation. It is not the first time that a move away from the Santiago Bernabeu has collapsed at the last-minute, and there appears to be a degree of frustration in the air on the part of the club.<\/p>\n

Real Madrid no longer contemplating Ceballos exit<\/h2>\n

According to Marca<\/a>, Real Madrid have ruled out an exit for Ceballos in the final stages of the transfer market. The 29-year-old midfielder will return to training as another member of the squad with the same rotational role as he had prior. Los Blancos were ready to do a deal, taking into account Ceballos\u2019 wishes, but now feel that it is no longer worth \u2018wasting their time on further negotiations\u2019.<\/p>\n

Real Betis rumours<\/h2>\n

It was rumoured that Ceballos had halted the move to Ligue 1 due to potential interest from former club Betis, with who he has flirted for multiple years over a return. Conflicting reports emerged on their interest<\/a>, but it appears they have made no formal move for him. Cadena Cope say that their information is that it was Ceballos that got in touch with Los Verdiblancos.<\/p>\n

They say that in order for Betis to make a move, the deal would have to become more affordable, both in terms of Ceballos\u2019 wages, and the fee demanded by Los Blancos.<\/p>\n
