Arsenal manager Unai Emery has heaped praise on Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos ahead of his potential loan move to the north London side.
The club is keen to bring in a midfielder who will replace Aaron Ramsey who joined Juventus at the end of the season. And according to reports, Madrid and Arsenal have reached an agreement for the 22-year-old who could be unveiled this week.
"We are speaking about the possibility to sign one player," Emery said ahead of his side's final International Champions Cup match against Real in Washington DC.
"We have different names and the club is working on that. Ceballos is a very good player. I know him from [Real] Betis at the beginning and Real Madrid."
The Spaniard, who started his career at Real Betis before moving to Madrid in 2017, played a starring role as Spain won the U21 European Championships this summer.
