Last week, Calciomercato explained Liverpool have come forward to sign Marco Asensio and are joined by AC Milan in the chase for the Real Madrid player.
The winger’s contract expires in 2023 and it isn’t clear whether he will sign a new deal, change clubs or stay at Real Madrid for one more season and leave as a free agent next year.
COPE journalist Melchor Ruiz now provides a fresh update on the 26-year-old’s future and Liverpool’s interest in him.
According to Ruiz, Asensio’s future seems to be ‘increasingly’ away from the Champions League winners because Los Blancos have decided not to make any renewal proposal to him.
The Spain international’s desire is to play regularly next season. At the Bernabéu, he is set to face increased competition under Carlo Ancelotti’s orders. Therefore, he has ‘decided to listen’ to offers he has received from elsewhere.
This is when Liverpool are mentioned, along with the Serie A winners, as the ex-Mallorca man is handling offers from the Reds and Milan. That’s all the journalist has to say about Jürgen Klopp’s side.
COPE don’t state whether Asensio prefers Liverpool or Milan.
