AC Milan have Arsenal loanee Dani Ceballos on their radar as the Spaniard edges towards the end of his spell at the Emirates, according to a report from Calciomercato.It.

Ceballos looks set to return to Real Madrid at the end of his loan spell. He has had a mixed time during his two years in North London.

He was outstanding towards the end of last season. And he has also produced a handful of superb displays in recent months. But he has also struggled for long periods.

Ceballos told Onda Cero recently that he believes that his game is better suited to La Liga.

It remains to be seen if Arsenal show interest in prolonging his stay. La Razon reported in February that Los Blancos would want around £22 million for the 24-year-old.

But if the Gunners do make a fresh move, it appears that they face competition for his signature.

According to Calciomercato.It, Ceballos is back on AC Milan’s radar. It is noted in the report that Madrid enjoy a good relationship with the Rossoneri, so that may hand them an advantage.

TBR View: Arsenal should leave Milan to it

Arteta has shown a lot of loyalty to many of the club’s key players during his tenure. So it would not be a huge surprise if the Arsenal boss did have some interest in holding onto him for at least another year.

But in truth, this summer arguably looks to be a good time to let Ceballos head elsewhere.

The Spain international has not kicked on as some expected. And if Arsenal are going to move forward, they arguably need to look elsewhere.

Ceballos is a player capable of stunning performances. But the gulf between his good and poor displays is arguably too great for a side looking to get themselves back up the table.

So if Milan are keen to take him to San Siro next season, Arsenal should resist the temptation to try and keep him.
