More and more clubs want Asensio. EFE

Marco Asensio's contract with Real Madrid expires in 2023 and, with a few months to go until the summer transfer window, the last chance to cash in on a hypothetical sale, two clubs have returned to his list of suitors and a third has joined. They are Juventus, Milan and Borussia Dortmund.

Before the winter, it was leaked that Liverpool, Juventus and Milan were looking at signing Marco Asensio this summer, taking advantage of the fact that he finishes his contract with Real Madrid in 2023. After a few months without news, the Reds are interested again, as are the Bianconeri and Rossoneri, and Arsenal and Borussia Dortmund have joined the bidding.

'Sport' and 'Mundo Deportivo' report that the Italians are back in talks to sign him and 'ABC' mentions the Germans' desire to sign him. These are top-level entities that could get a discount for the Spaniard because, from January 2023, they could negotiate to take him for free.

The last chance for 'Los Blancos' to cash in on him is the summer transfer window unless they renew him before then. Talks in this regard have not yet made much progress or, at least, it has not come to light that they have, so the Bernabeu bosses will have to make a decision soon.

Asensio's market value is €28 million and Real Madrid have to consider whether they want to keep him in their ranks. His main weapon, his accurate and powerful strike from distance, is giving the team a lot of joy this season and, so far, Carlo Ancelotti has shown that he trusts him.
