Chelsea owner Abramovich in Florentino contact about €150M Real Madrid star Asensio
Posted Saturday, March 31, 2018 by Tribalfootball.com
Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich is determined to burn off all competition for Real Madrid star Marco Asensio.
Asensio, 22, is desperate to get more game time under coach Zinedine Zidane at Real and is prepared to leave this summer.
Don Balon says Abramovich is willing to offer £132m (€150m) for Asensio ahead of the summer transfer window.
Chelsea ace Alvaro Morata, who quit Real for Stamford Bridge last summer in a £70m deal, has convinced Blues transfer chiefs to go all out for Asensio at the end of the season.
But for now, Real president Florentino Perez is holding out to keep Asensio, though he could be forced into a sale if the player begins kicking up a fuss.
The winger has netted eight goals and chipped in with five assists in all competitions, despite his limited role this season.
