Marco Asensio will leave Real Madrid at the end of the season
Marco Asensio will leave Real Madrid at the end of the season, as EL MUNDO has been able to confirm. The footballer has made this decision after having rejected the renewal offer from the white club, as Relevo announced.
His representative, Jorge Mendes, and the club's general manager, José Ángel Sánchez, had been in talks since December. Madrid had presented him with an offer that improved his current contract, but relegated him to a substitute role with which the Mallorcan, at 27, was not entirely satisfied. Asensio had received proposals from the Premier League and PSG, and will assess his options in the coming weeks.
His departure opens the door for Kubo and Brahim, who had to leave the Bernabéu in recent years because they couldn't find a place, but who Real Madrid has kept on the radar.
Asensio's numbers
The ex of Mallorca leaves Real Madrid with a great list of winners. He has won three Champions League, four Club World Cups, three European Super Cups, three Leagues, three Spanish Super Cups and one Copa del Rey.
He arrived at Real Madrid in the 16/17 season. During this time he has played 285 games, scored 61 goals and given 32 assists. His role this season has been rather discreet, usually starting from the bench.
