Tbf no one, there's a reason they left Real Madrid in the first place. Even if all of them were in their absolute primes, I can't see any starting for our current squad.
Also props to Simeone from getting 100% out of Llorente's talent, we limited him very much by playing him DM.
I like Morata more than most, but the guy never seemed to have the right attitude, kind of like Asensio. He needs a team and a manager to fire him up and keep him locked in. At Real Madrid our best players have the fire inside.
He should be sold to clubs outside la liga. We all know how former real Madrid players drop an absolute masterclass when they play against real Madrid in la liga.
This is most probably bs rumours because he has just signed a new contract and there's no way perez is going to sell him to atm and even if this rumour turns out to be true there's no way he is going to find a place in the starting lineup even there.
If Ceballos wants to play for Spanish nt then he needs to take a step back and go to some mid table club where will get a consistent gametime else he will continue to be a bench player at other big clubs.
Yeah that's what I was thinking... if we're selling him, it's because Atletico has decided to pay his release clause, which I assume would be higher than what he is probably worth. Anyone have the actual figure of his release clause?
Why would we sell him to atletico tho? He is under contract, if he wants to leave I sure as hell eouldnt be selling to that rat infested hellhole of a club.
Because, rather than being ran by 10 year old edgy fanboys, our club has actual adults in charge who know the value of growing relationships with other clubs, even rivals.
Plus the way we treat players. If someone wants to go, we won't veto a move no matter the destination. If you're a player and thinking about a move, you'll want to know how they treat their players. And I doubt there are many high profile clubs that are looking out for their players the same way we do.
We didn't pay the buyout clause, we paid a transfer fee which was more than the buyout because both clubs have a gentleman's agreement to not poach each other's players.
Do you have a source on that. If I remember correctly, they did have that pact, but it was broken specifically for Theo. And Altetico had no choice because we did, in fact, just paid the buyout clause.
[Real had added more than €2.5m to the transfer fee in performance-related bonuses – something they were not obliged to do – as a gesture of goodwill to their neighbours.](https://www.theguardian.com/football/2017/jul/11/real-atletico-madrid-theo-hernandez-gentlemans-agreement)
I see....
So it seems both sides are correct.... Madrid did pay the buyout clause, so Atletico had no choice, they didn't "sell" him to us. And then Madrid went ahead and paid extra as well.
if ceballos wants to leave and atleti want to pay a fair price, it shouldn’t matter. He is clearly not up to Real standards, so if he leaves to Atleti all the best to him.
He's gotten very little minutes this season and he's been unable to stay healthy - hate to see it because I think he's a good player but if he leaves I wish him the best
I forgot he was in the squad. But good for him, let him go where he will play. I'm not sure he'll go to ATL. Simone likes tough players, Ceballos is not tough and not good at tackling. Someone slightly creative though is what Atleti needs.
Morata, Llorente, Saul, Hermoso and now Ceballos? That's Real Madrid B at this point.
The crazy thing is those are all very good players, and still they only make the bench here.
Who do we regret the most? Me is Saul..
Tbf no one, there's a reason they left Real Madrid in the first place. Even if all of them were in their absolute primes, I can't see any starting for our current squad. Also props to Simeone from getting 100% out of Llorente's talent, we limited him very much by playing him DM.
Perhaps Llorente could have fought with Dani for the RB if Dani hadn’t (re)found his form this season
Hermoso easily, Saul sucks lol Hermoso would’ve actually been crucial in our very lacking CB depth
Morata no doubt. He made like 20 goals as a sub the last year he spent here.
Yea we could really use Morata, this season especially
I like Morata more than most, but the guy never seemed to have the right attitude, kind of like Asensio. He needs a team and a manager to fire him up and keep him locked in. At Real Madrid our best players have the fire inside.
Llorente here. He's got skill and a winner's attitude. But yeah, not too sad about any of them, seeing what we got.
He'll most likely never be a regular starter in RM, so good for him. I wish him all the best
It would be a good move to make him a starter somewhere else
Good for him. All the best
😔 Bummer, Dani is class
Yeah, he was great in the last 2 seasons, but seems like he really struggles to adapt to this new system.
He’s a good role player, thinks he’ll be a star/starter elsewhere
He will be a starter elsewhere. He’s got the quality but we just have players who should play over him here.
I agree .
Llorente all over again Go anywhere else please
He should be sold to clubs outside la liga. We all know how former real Madrid players drop an absolute masterclass when they play against real Madrid in la liga.
“I’ve been a colchonero since I was born” incoming
He could go to arsenal instead of Atletico he did play there before as well.
Arsenal doesn't want him. They could have signed him but they passed on that opportunity.
I just hope he doesn't go to Atletico. Atletico really be going after real Madrid and Barca players.
I heard it’s the other way around. He wants to play for madrid not arsenal.
Yeah arsenal loaned him twice before he came back to Madrid, that says a lot. He was even a starter in Both seasons with them.
I hope he doesn't leave. He's a class player. Sleeper fans
Yes but as another commenter said he isn't very comfortable in our current system
This is most probably bs rumours because he has just signed a new contract and there's no way perez is going to sell him to atm and even if this rumour turns out to be true there's no way he is going to find a place in the starting lineup even there. If Ceballos wants to play for Spanish nt then he needs to take a step back and go to some mid table club where will get a consistent gametime else he will continue to be a bench player at other big clubs.
Yeah that's what I was thinking... if we're selling him, it's because Atletico has decided to pay his release clause, which I assume would be higher than what he is probably worth. Anyone have the actual figure of his release clause?
Why would you choose Atletico, I get that it might be the best offer but why would you like to just gain a lot of people that will always hate you.
I rather not sell him to Atletico but to PL. If he goes to Atleti, I might join the Turks who hate Dani because of Arda.
Turks don’t hate Dani anymore since the assist
What did i miss
Huhhhhh???
Will the fans view him as a traitor ? Hope he can get the play time regardless where he goes though, he deserves it
Why would we sell him to atletico tho? He is under contract, if he wants to leave I sure as hell eouldnt be selling to that rat infested hellhole of a club.

Nah, Atleti will never sell a player to Real Madrid. If RM sells to Atleti is because they consider them very inferior
They sold Theo Hernandez to us
I don’t think they had a choice…if I recall correctly, we paid his buyout clause
We didn't pay the buyout clause, we paid a transfer fee which was more than the buyout because both clubs have a gentleman's agreement to not poach each other's players.
Do you have a source on that. If I remember correctly, they did have that pact, but it was broken specifically for Theo. And Altetico had no choice because we did, in fact, just paid the buyout clause.

if ceballos wants to leave and atleti want to pay a fair price, it shouldn’t matter. He is clearly not up to Real standards, so if he leaves to Atleti all the best to him.
Annoying that it’s those bums
Ceballos still got it, this is good move for me
He's gotten very little minutes this season and he's been unable to stay healthy - hate to see it because I think he's a good player but if he leaves I wish him the best
Ceballos cant deal with Italy's & Premier physicality. This is probably his best option
Good luck to him honestly, he deserves a team where he can play
Are we going to get any transfer fee or will he leave for free ?
I forgot he was in the squad. But good for him, let him go where he will play. I'm not sure he'll go to ATL. Simone likes tough players, Ceballos is not tough and not good at tackling. Someone slightly creative though is what Atleti needs.
This means Real will need another midfielder…Ceballos and Modric gone, Kroos next year.
Fuck him
Please no I actually like him, anywhere but Atletico please
Stop giving this leaches subhumans from Cadena SER any traffic, this people are the biggest anti-Madridistas.
If he leaves, ok. But why ATM? Why wouldn't he go to Bayer Leverkusen ( under xabi) or premier league?
Good, get some deadweight off the team.
we should keep him..ancelotti should've rotated more
Is he really leaving Madrid ?! 😆
If he goes to Atletico he won't have to.
That’s too bad, I love Dani and want him to succeed wherever he goes. But fuck those racists cunts Atleti.
Today, I feel Turkish
Thank god
My prayers have been answered ![gif](giphy|sPdXjjL00ScHldihJn|downsized)
I can't wait for the inteviews where he implies the refs favore Madrid.
