Barcelona are monitoring Marco Asensio’s case
Barcelona are watching the fall of Marco Asensio, who has entered the final year of his contract with Real Madrid, and could sign him if he stays free.
THE Marco Asensio It is possible that he will be included in the list of players who have moved from Real Madrid to Barcelona (and vice versa) as the Blaugrana are overseeing the case of the 26-year-old midfielder from Merengues, according to Mundo Deportivo.
Asensio has entered the final year of his contract with the European champions and still plays a complementary role in Carlo Ancelotti’s rotation. From January, the international midfielder will have the right to negotiate with any team in view of the summer.
The Catalans are keen on the prospect of signing him due to his age but also his tactical adaptability. Of course, once purchased, Xavi does not count as a start, but as a good alternative solution.
Asensio has been playing for Real since the summer of 2015. In total, he has made 239 appearances in all competitions, scoring 50 goals, and this year he has played four times as a substitute in all competitions and scored a goal in the Champions League against Leipzig.
