– The Spanish newspaper Marca revealed the situation that was almost lost Real Madrid Raul Asensio, returning to 2023.
That year, Asensio was on the Real list to face Deportivo Alaves, but he was surprised before the team left by informing him that he would not be on the list.
The decision came completely unexpected, and raised many questions about his future in the club, especially since he was in a period of negotiations to renew his contract.
The reason behind this exclusion was linked to a great controversy at the time, as Asensio was considered a “suspect” in a case related to publishing an unethical clip of a minor, a scandal in which three other youth players were also involved from the academy.
That moment was a turning point in Asensio’s career with Real Madrid, as his departure at the end of the season became almost settled, before the situation changed by his support by Raul, the coach of Casta, to continue after him until he gets his chance with the first team and becomes one of his basic papers.
