Real Madrid Transfers: 3 potential destinations for Marco Asensio next season

PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN

This is another club where Marco Asensio could possibly rewrite his career after two tough enduring seasons at Real Madrid. Los Blancos are gunning for Kylian Mbappe this summer transfer market but there is a doubt of uncertainty on whether they can afford the signing of the 22-year-old.

The club will look to come up with ways to match PSG’s demand and will look into the option of selling a few deadwood players. Instead of selling Marco Asensio, Real could consider offering the winger as part of a swap deal. In the past, there were rumours about Vinicus Jr being included in a potential swap deal but were not reliable.

However, offering Asensio does not seem to be too bad. The 25-year-old could act as a backup to Neymar Jr and Angel Di Maria since he can play on either wing. Asensio can also play as a central attacking midfielder and compete for a spot with Julian Draxler in the eleven. There is an opportunity for Asensio to grow at PSG, it just depends if the Parisiens entertain a swap deal plus cash offer for Marco Asensio.

If Mauricio Pochettino continues at PSG after being linked as a replacement to Zinedine Zidane, Asensio could have a realistic shot at succeeding at Parc des Princes. Pochettino is one of the few managers that prefers using a number 10 in a free role and Neymar has often been the first choice. However, with Asensio in his squad, the Brazilian can focus more on the attack while the Spaniard can play through the centre and go either side while attacking or even have a shot from distance.
