Regularly lined up at the start of the season, Marco Asensio suddenly disappeared from circulation. The Paris Saint-Germain attacking midfielder is no longer favored by coach Luis Enrique. Before the end of the winter transfer window, the Ile-de-France club will try to get rid of the Spanish international and his imposing salary.
Knowing his usual communication, Luis Enrique will probably not give the explanation at a press conference. However, we would be curious to know how Marco Asensio could disappear from his plans so quickly. Compatible with his coach’s philosophy, the Paris Saint-Germain attacking midfielder began to establish himself firmly in the false number 9 position. Then the technician suddenly decided to reduce his playing time.
Asensio could quickly bounce back
Over the last eight matches in all competitions, the Spanish international has only spent 18 minutes on the pitch. It is therefore not surprising to learn that Paris Saint-Germain wants to part ways with it. The capital club thus hopes to reduce its payroll to make room for possible recruits, explains the newspaper L’Equipe. It must be said that Marco Asensio’s income is impressive. Arriving free in the summer of 2023, the former Real Madrid player had negotiated a contract at 830,000 euros gross per month until June 2026. A sort of whim on the part of the Ile-de-France management who jumped at this opportunity without real necessity.
As a result, the left-hander has not established himself and his cost complicates the task when it comes to finding him a way out, knowing that an exotic destination is not his priority. Still according to the sports daily, the Parisian, open to a departure, has touches in Spain and England. One of them comes from Aston Villa, specifies RMC, which is considering the possibility for Paris Saint-Germain to take advantage of this interest to better negotiate the arrival of Villans striker Jhon Duran.
