Real Madrid star ready to sign new contract and stay at the club - Reports

Marco Asensio wants to stay at Real Madrid beyond this season. Real Madrid's Marco Asensio is reportedly ready to stay back at the club and extend his contract at the Santiago Bernabeu, as per journalist Manu Sainz. The Spanish midfielder, who is also versatile enough to play in attack, has been rumored to leave Los Blancos for quite some time. His lack of game time and failure to cement a starting XI spot further fuelled the rumor mill. Asensio made his feelings about the lack of regular football under Italian boss Carlo Ancelotti. Multiple clubs, including European giants like Arsenal, Barcelona, and AC Milan along with Newcastle United, have been to sign him as a free agent in 2023. However, as per Sainz's report, Asensio now seems set to sign an extension at Madrid. The Spaniard has registered two goals and laid down two assists in 12 games this season. The issue for Asensio could be the fact that 11 of those 12 appearances have been substitute appearances, leaving him with just one start this season. Asensio ha cambiado el chip.
