Hi ed2, I hope you are well. Just wondered about Marco Asensio, few new reports saying we are still keen. Are we keen?

{Ed002's Note - I explained last month. Try searching.}

hi eds
about asensio any truth in the stories of a poor attitude and work rate from him.
as he would be cover for salah or maybe drop into midfield, i would prefer to use elliott.
out of all the rumours only barella interests me.

{Ed002's Note - Marco Asensio (RW/LW) Goals have largely dried up and his representative is working with a third-party agent to find a club willing to pay something like €40M for the player. The third party has said that the player ideally wants a club in the Champions League but the discussions he has had have been with Leicester City, Newcastle and Leeds so far, and admits knocking on the door of other PL clubs including Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester United and Spurs. Player is almost certainly not open to moving to a side not in the Champions League. Milan and Juventus were approached but showed no interest, although Milan have since met directly with his representative to discuss price having stepped back from another target - although Ziyech is also in the mix for them. I suspect he might be seen as an option by Liverpool being able to play on either wing or in an AM role - and Liverpool have approached his reprentative. PSG provide a potential option. Real Madrid will be open to using him in a part exchange deal of some type but finding a buyer at the asking price might be difficult but will also perhaps try and do something with Dortmund. A new contract seems unlikely, but Madrid will not want him to run down his contract.}

Appreciate you answered last month, hence me asking if anything had changed. Thanks.
