The central midfielder was excellent in the three games he started and was vital in getting Spain to the final while showing enough in the last game to pip Saúl and Asensio to the award.
Despite losing the final, Dani Ceballos was named as the outstanding player of the Euro under 21 Championships in Poland. The Real Betis player picked up the award four years after Thiago picked the award up for Spain during his effort in 2013 in Israel.

The midfielder started in three games and made his way into the starting XI in place of Denis Suarez after the first game. He was excellent against Portugal and was rested against Russia. His display in the semi-final was somewhat overshadowed by Saul's hat-trick but it was a glimpse into the quality Ceballos has and the control on a game he can exert when he is at his best.
