Real Madrid midfielder Marco Asensio wanted by five clubs?

Real Madrid midfielder Marco Asensio is reportedly attracting attention from as many as five clubs ahead of 2022.

With a knee injury having restricted his progression at the Santiago Bernabeu, the 25-year-old is no longer regarded as a certainty for the starting XI.

The Spaniard has been restricted to just three starts and eight substitute outings in all competitions this season, game time which has inevitably led to speculation regarding his future.

Speaking on El Chiringuito, journalist Eduardo Inda suggests that five clubs are currently monitoring the situation ahead of January.

Liverpool, Arsenal, AC Milan, Juventus and Borussia Dortmund are all said to be keen on handing Asensio a fresh start in a different league.

The playmaker has just 20 months remaining on his contract and there appears little chance of fresh terms being signed in the future.
