Dani Ceballos was the second transfer of this window for Arsenal, as he joined on a loan deal from Real Madrid.
The creative midfielder will be a great addition to the team and it will be quite something to see him link up with players like Granit Xhaka and Lucas Torreira.
And it is encouraging to see that he has hit the ground running already as he started training in London Colney. The official website had posted some photos showing the midfielder in action.
The start of the Premier League is not too far away and players need to be in top condition to succeed on the pitch. Ceballos is a player who has a real point to prove after his tenure at Real did not go the way he would have liked.
He has been chosen by the club as the replacement for the recently departed Aaron Ramsey. This is given further credence by the fact that Ceballos was given the No. 8 previously worn by the Welshman.
Here are some pics:
Arsenal will be in action in the Emirates Cup on Sunday and this may be the first time that the fans get to see him play. For those who have seen him on YouTube or play in Spain, they know what kind of skill set Ceballos brings to the field. If you do not know much about him, you will be surprised by his dribbling skills and ability to break through the lines.
The North London club have done well to get such a talented midfielder without parting with much money. Fans and the club will be hoping that Ceballos is able to repay the faith that has been shown in him. It appears that Arsenal are not yet done in the transfer market even after bringing in a player like Ceballos.
The squad needs to be as strong as possible in order to push for a return to the Champions League. Players like the Spaniard would certainly play a huge role in that regard and it will be interesting to see how he is able to gel with his new teammates. It does promise to be an exciting season for the Gunners.
