Real Madrid is preparing for a busy summer transfer window, but they now face the risk of losing one of their brightest young talents. Paris Saint-Germain has set its sights on 21-year-old Spanish center-back Raúl Asencio, seeing him as a key defensive reinforcement.
PSG Moves for Madrid’s Defensive Gem
Asencio has been one of the standout young players for Madrid this season, impressing with his maturity and composure despite limited game time under Carlo Ancelotti. PSG, led by Luis Enrique, believes the young defender is being underutilized and is ready to make a strong push for his signature.
With a €50 million release clause, PSG is reportedly willing to negotiate a deal that could see Asencio leave the Bernabéu. The French giants are prepared to offer him a lucrative contract and a guaranteed key role in their squad—something Madrid has yet to provide.
Real Madrid’s Dilemma
While Asencio is under contract until 2026, his lack of consistent minutes has created uncertainty about his future. To keep him, Ancelotti may need to reconsider his defensive rotations and give the young Spaniard a bigger role.
Despite PSG’s growing interest, Real Madrid remains confident they can retain Asencio. However, with the transfer window approaching, the next few months could be crucial in deciding his future. Will Madrid step up to secure their young star, or will PSG pull off a stunning transfer coup?
