The Saudi Union Club has moved to sign Spanish midfielder Dani Ceballos from Real Madrid during the ongoing summer transfer window to strengthen the team's midfield ahead of the new season's competitions.

The Union's interest in signing Ceballos comes based on a recommendation from French coach Laurent Blanc, who aims to enhance the team's technical performance in the midfield.

Journalistic sources confirmed that Real Madrid's management does not oppose selling Ceballos during the current transfer window, despite their previous demand of 15 million euros, an amount that interested clubs, including Real Betis, are unwilling to pay.

This move is part of a series of summer signings by the Union, which has already included the acquisition of trio Mohammed Al-Absi, Ahmed Al-Jalaidan, and Mohammed Barnaoui to bolster the team's ranks in preparation for the new season.

The Union is preparing to face Al-Nassr tomorrow in the semi-finals of the Saudi Super Cup, an important step to test the team's capabilities before the official competitions commence.
