As it has been widely reported, Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos is on the brink of joining Arsenal on a season-long loan deal. The attacking midfielder is expected to be confirmed by the London club anytime this week.
Ceballos has a reputation of being a no-nonsense individual both on and off the pitch and once labeled Spain World Cup winners Cesc Fabregas and Gerard Pique ‘a disgrace’ while only aged 16 years.
Ceballos isn't your lovey dovey technical midfielder.He has made fun of Iker Casillas' manhood and also called Fabregas and Pique 'Shameless' when he was just 16. He also told Zidane he has no plans of playing for him when Zidane told him he won't get chances. He's a character.

Oh and there’s more…
Real Betis relegated Getafe on the final day of the season and Betis Dani Ceballos told Getafe centre-back Cala: "I hope you go rot in the second division and the club disappears." #afc

This, of course, led to widespread reactions from Arsenal fans online who were quick to hail the midfielder’s attitude.
Killer mentality

Ceballos is expected to fill the void left by Welsh midfielder Aaron Ramsey who joined Italian giants Juventus after his contract with the Gunners expired last season.
