Saturday morning's La Liga transfer talk news roundup:

Arsenal 'face three transfer rivals for Dani Ceballos'

Three clubs are reportedly prepared to rival Arsenal in the race to sign Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos.

While the Spaniard had only played a bit-part role for the Gunners before the coronavirus pandemic, the 23-year-old has emerged as one of Mikel Arteta 's key men over the past three weeks.

With Ceballos out of favour at the Bernabeu, discussions are expected to take place between the relevant parties, with a compromise likely to be required to get a deal over the line.

However, according to The Express, AC Milan, Valencia and Real Betis are all eyeing up a season-long loan for the playmaker.

As a result of Los Blancos being keen to raise transfer funds over the next 12 months, much could depend on whether any proposal includes a mandatory option to buy.

Ceballos still has three years remaining on his contract with the La Liga leaders.

Barcelona 'agree personal terms with Lautaro Martinez'

Barcelona have reportedly agreed personal terms with Inter Milan forward Lautaro Martinez ahead of a potential move to Camp Nou during this summer's transfer window.

The Spanish champions have long been linked with the 22-year-old, who has scored 17 times in 38 appearances for Antonio Conte 's side during the 2019-20 campaign.

According to ESPN, Barca have now come to an agreement with Martinez over personal terms, although the Catalan giants are yet to strike a deal with Inter when it comes to a transfer fee.

The report claims that the Italian giants would prefer cash to a swap deal, meaning that an agreement for the Argentine could hinge on whether Quique Setien's side are able to sell Philippe Coutinho.

The former Liverpool playmaker has allegedly been made surplus to requirements by the La Liga giants, and a number of clubs have been linked with a move ahead of the 2020-21 season.

Martinez is thought to have a €111m (£99.3m) release clause in his contract at San Siro although various reports have claimed that the buy-out figure has now expired.
