– Trusted journalist Fabrizio Romano confirmed that Raul Asensio will remain part of the Real Madrid project, as the club is close to ending the renewal negotiations of his contract.
Real Madrid started talks since last December, but it was not in a hurry, given the clear desire of Asensio to stay with the team, and with negotiations entering its final stages, only some of the last details remain before the official announcement.
Asensio has the confidence and support of the technical staff led by Carlo Ancelotti, and Florentino Perez is happy to see a player from the Academy continues to shine with the first team.
The new Asensio contract became almost ready, as the administration decided to remove the previous penalty clause of 50 million euros, in a move that reflects the club’s great confidence in its continuation as a basic pillar in the future.
