Liverpool have been linked with Marco Asensio as per reports in the media.
Liverpool keen on playmaker
Yesterday, renowned Spanish source came up with a story and suggested the 22-year-old has got a mouth-watering bid on the table from Liverpool and the attacking midfielder is tempted to agree to a switch to Anfield.
Last term, Asensio played 32 La Liga matches for the Spanish side, netted 6 times and created 5 assists. It should also be noted that the Spaniard only started 19 matches in the Spanish La Liga.
Liverpool target set to take giant stride
Sport have claimed that Los Blancos President Fiorentino Perez wants to bring in superstars like Eden Hazard, Neymar Jr. and it is crystal clear that if any of the two stars mentioned arrive at the Santiago Bernabeu then Asensio’s playing time will be reduced.
The Spanish publication suggests that the La Roja playmaker wants to take a step further in his career and for that reason, the midfielder could leave the Santiago Bernabeu.
Asensio can effortlessly play as a wide man, on either flank and also as a central attacking midfielder. Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp certainly needs a versatile playmaker like the Spaniard to further strengthen the depth and quality of his attack.
