Club career

Born in Temuco, Chile, Ceballos began playing at amateur level in neighbourhoods from Padre Las Casas at the age of fifteen.[1] She then joined Unión Temuco, and began her senior career with Deportes Temuco in 2011, after Unión folded.[1]

On 29 July 2019, Ceballos joined Ecuadorian club Delfín SC on a permanent deal, alongside fellow Chilean Viviana Torres.[2] However, both players returned to Chile just a few months later, with Ceballos subsequently joining Universidad de Concepción.[1][3]

At the end of the 2021 season, she was selected in the Campeonato Nacional Fútbol Femenino's Ideal Team.[4][5]

On 11 March 2023, Ceballos became one of the eleven footballers who signed their first professional contracts with Universidad de Concepción.[6][7]

International career

In September 2021, Ceballos received her first call-up to the Chilean senior national team, for a training camp in preparation to the 2022 Copa América.[4][8]

Personal life

After graduating as a nurse at the Autonomous University of Chile, Ceballos worked part-time at the emergency medicine facility of a local hospital, while pursuing her footballing career.[1]

During the COVID-19 pandemic, she worked as a part-time contributor for the Chilean Football Federation, being involved in the supervision of safety protocols, as well as COVID-19 rapid testing, in national football competitions.[1]
