Latest Arsenal News: The future of Real Madrid attacker Marco Asensio is still up in the air, with Arsenal continuing to be mentioned as one of the clubs interested in acquiring his services. This season, Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal team has the youngest roster in the Premier League. They are now in a strong position to earn a fourth-place finish. This would give them a spot in the Champions League next season.
If Arsenal manages to finish in the top four of the English Premier League with five games remaining to play, it will be regarded as an incredible feat by all standards. Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has emphasized the need to acquire quality players for his roster. Particularly, those who have proven themselves in the Premier League several times.
According to a report by Calciomercato, and by Le10sport, Arsenal is now stepping up their efforts to bring the forward to the Emirates. Arteta is seeking players that fit the kind of quality that Asensio, a proven winner with Real Madrid, has.
The 26-year-old’s contract with the Spanish giants ends in 2023. While the clubs have attempted to have negotiations about a new term, they are still far from reaching an agreement. The Gunners are aiming to unload club-record signing Nicolas Pepe this summer. Cristiano Ronaldo of Manchester United may be an excellent replacement for the Brazilian.
Asensio is having his most productive season in terms of goalscoring so far in his professional career. During his 39 appearances thus far this season, he has found the back of the goal twelve times. In his team’s most recent 4-0 win against Espanyol, the Spanish international scored a goal.
La Liga champions Real Madrid secured their 35th championship with four games left in the Spanish premier division as a result of their win.
Latest Arsenal News: Arsenal will face competition from Serie A clubs in the pursuit of the Real Madrid winger
AC Milan is reportedly showing interest in signing Marco Asensio, according to Calciomercato (via Le10sport), despite the winger having yet to commit to a deal with the Spanish giants. The move will not be simple for Mikel Arteta. The Serie A team is in a far better position when it comes to fighting for trophies than the Premier League team.
With a two-point advantage over second-placed Inter Milan, Stefano Pioli’s team is in pole position to win the Italian top division. In recent years, both Arsenal and AC Milan have established themselves as viable and successful destinations for Real Madrid players.
The Rossoneri acquired Theo Hernandez from Los Blancos in 2019. He has been a standout performer for them. Brahim Diaz has settled in nicely during his loan term with the club over the same period. Dani Ceballos, a Real Madrid loanee who spent the previous two seasons at Arsenal under Arteta, has loved his time at the Emirates Martin Odegaard is also now enjoying some of his finest games with the Gunners.
It would be intriguing to watch which club Asensio chooses. That is if he does decide to leave the La Liga giants soon.
