Arsenal Complete Ceballos Loan Deal From Real Madrid

Arsenal have completed the signing of Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos on a season-long loan deal.

The Spaniard will wear the No. 8 shirt for the Gunners, the squad number previously assigned to Aaron Ramsey, who left the club to join Juventus on a free transfer.

The move represents the north Londoners’ second signing of the summer, with Gabriel Martinelli having arrived from Ituano in a £6 million ($8m) move.

It is not expected to be the Gunners’ final summer move, however, with more activity expected before the window shuts.

Unai Emery’s side also remain interested in signing Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha and a fresh bid is expected to follow having already tested the water with an initial £40m ($50m) offer.
