Real Betis president Angel Haro admits they're keen to re-sign Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos.
Ceballos is keen on a return to Betis after a difficult first six months in Madrid.
"Yes, I heard rumours and information. We are currently working on projects but we cannot say more," said Haro.
"We have budget constraints and we need to strengthen the most important positions. If a player arrives, we would like to buy him and not loan him to us.
"In football, the reliability of this kind of rumour is difficult to evaluate. We never know if they will come to fruition because anything can happen."
