Eager to keep Marco Asensio, Luis Enrique takes the risk of coming up against Juventus' desire to bring him in. The management of PSG is caught between two fires.
The players who arrived at PSG from Real Madrid are having a hard time providing satisfaction. Jesé remains an immeasurable failure, while Sergio Ramos has never really managed to convince. Marco Asensio was expected to give a new face to the Parisian attack, with a touch of experience, an ability to play between the lines and valuable versatility. But the Spaniard is unable to find his feet despite the confidence placed in him by Luis Enrique, and a departure is not unthinkable knowing that PSG does not have an attack that is very scary in Europe currently.
PSG is listening, Luis Enrique not really
As a result, a club came to the information according to Foot Mercato, and it is Juventus. The Turin team fell for Marco Asensio and requested a loan with an option to buy. The estimated amount is not revealed, but the former White House would inherit a short contract until June 2026, proof that Thiago Motta's confidence is still limited in this bet. And above all, Asensio's salary is scary since it earns 10 million euros per year.
Not enough to prevent Thiago Motta from trying and also testing PSG's desire to stay within the line of conduct set by Luis Enrique. Indeed, despite the unconvincing performances of his compatriot, the Spanish striker remains an essential piece in the eyes of the Parisian coach. The capital club nevertheless listens to what Juventus has to say about him, and reserves the right to go further in the event of an interesting offer. A good proposal which could also come from other interested clubs, since Inter Milan would also be on board according to the specialist media.
