Asensio: “Renewing or leaving Real Madrid?.. there is a third choice”

Marco Asensio was the player chosen by the organizing committee to appear in a press conference on Tuesday, two days before Spain’s third match in the European Nations League against Switzerland. His answers to journalists’ questions were as follows:

Was your recent absence from the Spain national team also because you didn’t regularly participate in matches?

It’s something I want for myself in the next few years, continuity. That confidence and that regularity to me is important. At Real Madrid, I’ve had continuity in some parts of this season. It’s something I strive for, and I need to have.

Luis Enrique said you were surprised to be called up for the national team.

I always see myself qualified to join the national team and I am happy. The atmosphere is still good and I’m happy to be with my teammates. I have to work hard.

I played 24 matches and scored twelve goals. Do you think it is possible to have more continuity at Real Madrid, and when will you know your future?

The answer is yes. As for my future, now I focus on the national team at the end of this focus we will talk about things.

The situation is clear. You know Real Madrid will either renew you or sell you because they won’t let you leave for free

There is a third possibility, which is the possibility of staying and fulfilling the rest of my contract… (His contract expires in June 2023)

Which method do you prefer more, Ancelotti or Luis Enrique?

I love them both very much Carlo has experience, he is a wise man. Luis Enrique is a very good coach and he has achieved great things in the world of football. He knows how to convey his ideas to his players.

At Real Madrid it is difficult to continue and that affects your going to the World Cup. Will it be key to your decision?

Everything can affect. I don’t know if it’s about that, but of course, one always wants to be in the national team.

Does it bother you that names like Gnabry and Gabriel Jesus are associated with Madrid?

After all, rumors are part of football. They are always attached and we are used to the rumors that always come up. It’s something you have to live with.
