Can Marco Asensio take his game to the next level?

When Marco Asensio burst onto the scene and scored continuously for Real Madrid, it was clear that the Whites had landed one of the jewels of Spanish football. Considering the fact that Real Madrid won’t make any major signings in the upcoming season, the Spaniard who is turning 25 in January next year must take his chances well.

He has the ability to be a key player for Madrid and Spain for years to come as he starts entering the prime of his career. Blessed with extraordinary vision, Asensio’s ability to start attacking moves as well finish moves off himself would inject a much-needed boost of energy and decisiveness to the attack.

Asensio has already shown that he has the potential to be right up there with the best in the world with his stellar performances during Zinedine Zidane’s first reign. His decisiveness, flair, and eye for goal (especially on the biggest of nights) have made him a fan favorite at Real Madrid.

His ability to play a range of roles in the attack is an asset to have for any team and this season the player and the club should make the most of his mercurial talents, especially his lethal scoring abilities.

This might just be the season where Asensio is discussed in the same bracket as the likes of Neymar, Kylian Mbappe. He has already shown that he can be a game-changer in decisive moments and he must use the talents at his disposal to start doing it week in week out.

The Spaniard with the wand of a left foot might do well to remind the world about why he was destined for stardom and there is no other season to do so like the upcoming.
