Marco Asensio has still not renewed his contract with Real Madrid. Three clubs would be in pole position to welcome him next summer: Juventus of Turin, Inter Milan and Liverpool.

Marco Asensio, Real Madrid

The soap opera linked to Marco Asensio’s contract did not deliver its epilogue to Real Madrid. The player has so far not reached an agreement with his leaders for an extension, while his commitment is supposed to end in June 2023. And his free departure next summer is gradually looming. The striker has no shortage of courtiers, although his performances have proved erratic since arriving from Mallorca.

Klopp would imagine him replacing Mané

According to information from Files, three clubs are racing in the lead with a view to signing him at the end of his contract. Juventus of Turin are still looking for a leader who can compensate for the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo in the summer of 2021. The profile of the Spaniard would particularly appeal to Massimiliano Allegri. Inter Milan would like to associate him with Lautaro Martinez, at the forefront of his attack. Finally, Liverpool would see in him the replacement for Sadio Mané, who is sorely lacking in the offensive animation of Jürgen Klopp. The German technician would think he could take the Real Madrid player to the next level.

Aged 26, the native of Palma de Mallorca was recruited for 4 million euros in the summer of 2015. The player has since played 250 games, scored 52 goals and provided 27 assists. This season, Carlo Ancelotti has only fielded him 15 times in his team, including 3 times as a starter. The striker still scored 3 goals and provided 3 assists.

Marco Asensio has been linked with other clubs in recent weeks, including Manchester United and Barca. The Spanish press recently claimed that Carlo Ancelotti had asked his leaders to do what is necessary to ensure that he stays at the end of the season.
