Juventus have launched a bid for Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos.

Don Balon says Juve made contact with Real this week and are willing to table a huge offer to convince the Spanish giants to sell.

Ceballos is eager to leave Real this month after telling friends he regrets leaving Real Betis over the summer. The Spain U21 international has been largely ignored by coach Zinedine Zidane this season.

However, the Frenchman is reluctant to release any player from his squad this month - including Ceballos.

The only way the youngster can get a move away will be if he slaps in a transfer request.
