Asensio Stays True To Real Madrid: Rules Out Barcelona Move (See Details)

Real Madrid forward Marco Asensio has reportedly never considered signing for their bitter rivals Barcelona, according to Spanish radio programme ‘El Partidazo de COPE’.

Asensio, whose contract with Madrid is set to expire in June 2023, has been the subject of much speculation about his future in recent months. While there have been rumors that the Spanish international might consider a move to Barcelona, it seems that this is not the case.

The 25-year-old has been in and out of the Madrid starting line-up this season under new coach Carlo Ancelotti, but he has made a big impact when called upon.

Asensio has scored some important goals, including a stunning strike in the recent El Clasico victory over Barcelona.

Despite his occasional frustration at not starting every game, Asensio has always been clear that he is happy at Madrid and has no desire to leave.

This was confirmed by his recent celebrations after scoring against Barcelona, when he quickly put his finger to the Madrid badge to show his loyalty to the club.

While there may have been some interest from Barcelona in signing Asensio in the past, it seems that he has no interest in joining their arch rivals.

This will come as good news to Madrid fans, who will be hoping that Asensio can continue to develop and become an even more important player for the club in the years ahead.

As for Barcelona, they will need to look elsewhere for reinforcements as they seek to rebuild following a disappointing season.

With Lionel Messi having left the club last summer, and other key players such as Gerard Pique and Sergio Busquets entering the latter stages of their careers, there is a sense that Barcelona are in need of a major overhaul.

For now, however, it seems that Asensio will be staying put at Madrid and continue to play an important role for the club in their quest for success.
