Real Madrid intends to cash in on Marco Asensio this summer and will allow him to go for merely £22 million despite Chelsea’s recruitment interest.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!While representing Real Madrid, Asensio earned three La Liga titles and three Champions League trophies, but the winger only made 21 starts in both competitions last season.
Despite Carlo Ancelotti’s limited playing time, the Spanish international has a respectable season record of 10 goals and one assist. But there are mounting worries about his position at the club.
The young player has potential, and he has shown exceptional performance at times, but he hasn’t lived up to Madrid’s expectations, and with the club eager to replace some players in the starting lineup, they are ready to let him go.
According to Tuttomercato, Asensio, who has one year remaining on his contract, would allegedly be sold by Los Blancos if a £22 million bid is made.
The winger requested a wage increase and is eager for more playing time, although he could be better effective somewhere else.
During the transfer window, money will undoubtedly be spent, that much is certain.
Chelsea has long loved Asensio, so if there is a chance to finally enter the market and make an offer for him, we can see the Blues doing that.
He has great potential and might become a star midfielder with the right coach, making the signing at the price under consideration a genuine bargain for the squad.
There is no doubt that Chelsea would be smart to make an offer for the gifted young player.
