Dani Ceballos knows that moving back to Real Madrid now is not feasible with several big names around. And while he did mention speaking to Zinedine Zidane a couple of months ago, he now adds that he has not talked with the Los Blancos coach since he left on loan to Arsenal.

Ceballos is currently on loan to Arsenal FC and he plans to honor that commitment for as long as he is a Gunner. On not being able to speak with Zidane since leaving, he admits that doing so would be difficult. he points out how the team dressing room is full of players and that Zizou is unlikely to talk to loan players.

“It has to be difficult to have a dressing room with so many players. I don't think Zidane talks to the loan players," Ceballos said in an interview with Movistar. But that has not stopped him from considering a move back to Santiago Bernabeu.

"Hopefully. I now have a contract with Arsenal. At the moment in Madrid, it is difficult to play with the players that are there. Now I am focused on being important at a club,” he added.

Ceballos has been doing well with Arsenal, bursting into the scene with two assists in his second appearance, Goal.com reported. He has already made 24 appearances for the Gunners but the club only has one goal and two assists to show. He had his share of problems. He is coming off an injury layoff but is now ready to go. He is back in training following a decision by the club to return after spending time in isolation due to the coronavirus.

“The club has put us in training and I go to training camp individually,” he added. “It is the only thing I leave home for," he relayed.

Though a return to Real is something he is open to, he admits that he is learning a lot from Mikel Arteta. It wasn't too long ago that he drew criticism for saying that Pep Guardiola was possibly the best coach in history.

"It is what I think because I identify with his way of playing, although in Arsenal in three months I have learned a lot with Mikel Arteta," Ceballos said.
