With his Real Madrid contract about to expire next summer, Marco Asensio has addressed transfer talks linking him to Barcelona.
Asensio is well down the Madrid structure, trailing players like Federico Valverde and Rodrygo. He recently flung a bottle and his bib during a match against Mallorca when he wasn’t summoned after warming up.
The Spaniard took advantage of the chance that was given to him and scored a stunning goal in the following match against RB Leipzig.
He is not, however, guaranteed to play every single game due to the squad’s fierce competition.
Asensio and Madrid have had numerous conversations over a potential contract extension, but those talks are yet to bear fruit.
With his current contract expiring in the summer of 2023, he is being linked with a move to Barcelona as a free agent.
Is Marco Asensio Going To Barcelona?
When asked whether he could join the Catalan club, he told COPE: “I honestly don’t know. Like Barca, many have come out.
