Marco Asensio and Real Madrid find themselves at a crossroads in which they will be forced to make a final decision very shortly, since the white number ’11’ shirt ends his contract next June
The current season is not going as expected by the Mallorcan, since he is counting little or nothing for Carlo Ancelotti, adding only one start this season, something that happened a week ago against RB Leipzig, on matchday five of the UEFA champions league
However, despite the fact that a few days ago it was pointed out that Marco Asensio’s future was in Italy, in the last few hours the situation has taken a 180-degree turn
‘Corriere dello Sport’ has reported that the white club and the Spanish international will reach a renewal agreement, something that was unthinkable a few months ago, especially due to Jorge Mendes’ bad advice to his client
“We haven’t talked about the subject of the contract, he’s a player in the squad in whom I have confidence. He has played very little, but he always shows that he deserves to play. He has been decisive, he has scored today, he scored against Leipzig. He is going to have more minutes in the future. After the World Cup we will talk about his contractual situation”, were the most recent words of Carlo Ancelotti when he was questioned about the extension of the Balearic Islands’ contract
At the moment details of the possible agreement are unknown, but this information, which points to the continuity of Asensio, is a very big advance, especially after the tense situation that was experienced in the summer
