Real Madrid ready to part with Chelsea-linked Asensio
Real Madrid are prepared to cash in on Marco Asensio.
The Metro report that Los Blancos have put a £100 million price tag on the versatile 22-year-old, widely regarded as one of the premier talents in Spanish football.
Linked with Liverpool over the summer, it was never considered a deal likely to be completed before the start of the season.
However, it seems as though the champions of Europe are now willing to say goodbye to Asensio.
In addition to the Reds, Chelsea have now also entered the discussion for likely Asensio suitors.
This isn’t one we’ll have to wait for either – Real are reportedly willing to sell their star attacker in January.
A bidding war is likely to follow this revelation, with clubs from all over the continent eager to add one of world football’s brightest stars to their roster.
