As long as he is spared from injuries, Marco Asensio proves to be a very valuable player for Luis Enrique at PSG. Starting against Strasbourg on Saturday evening, the former Real Madrid player scored again.
Regularly injured since his arrival at Paris Saint-Germain, Marco Asensio is a frustrating player for Luis Enrique. And for good reason, the Spanish coach manages to get the best out of the former Real Madrid playmaker whenever he is available. Saturday evening, the Spanish international (38 caps) once again proved valuable in a false number nine position, around Barcola and Doué, scoring a goal, his second of the season in Ligue 1. On the side of Spain, we continue to carefully follow the journey of Marco Asensio.
At only 28 years old, the native of Palma de Mallorca is still a real contender for the selection led by Luis de la Fuente. This is how the media The Soccer Player looked into the situation of Marco Asensio, noting with surprise that the Parisian number 11 is much more visible in the colors of Paris Saint-Germain than when he wore the white jersey of Real Madrid. “The question many are asking is: why couldn’t Asensio shine so much at Real Madrid? » asks the Spanish media, highlighting Asensio’s good performances with PSG, before continuing.
Asensio’s performances at PSG widely watched in Spain
“The answer is complex. The competition within the Merengue team was tough, and the presence of big names like Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema limited the Spaniard’s opportunities. Additionally, injuries also played a big role in his irregularity” underlines the media, which also specifies that Marco Asensio benefits from a “environment conducive to its development” at Paris SG, largely thanks to Luis Enrique, a coach who loves his style of play and who has real confidence in him.
“The departure of Kylian Mbappé also opened the door to more playing time for Asensio” also concludes the media, for whom Marco Asensio could ultimately have been much more useful to Real Madrid given his good performances at PSG. Although he has indeed raised his level in Paris, Asensio remains a player who is regularly injured and subject to numerous physical problems. It will therefore take a little more before Real Madrid completely regrets its departure for zero euros two years ago.
