The Spanish club that wants to sign Marco Asensio

Real Sociedad has set its sights on Marco Asensio as one of its priorities for the upcoming summer transfer window. The Basque club is looking to strengthen its attack amidst the possibility of losing Takefusa Kubo, who has attracted interest from several Premier League teams. With uncertainty surrounding the Japanese player's future, the club's board believes that the Balearic player would fit perfectly into their system, bringing quality and experience to their offensive line.

Asensio, currently on loan at Aston Villa, will have to return to Paris Saint-Germain once the season concludes. However, his continuation with the Parisian team seems unlikely as he is not part of Luis Enrique's plans for the next season. In light of this situation, Real Sociedad plans to request a loan with an option to buy, aiming to take advantage of the player's contractual status to secure his transfer.

PSG wants to sell Asensio in the summer

The 29-year-old Mallorcan forward could be a key reinforcement for Imanol Alguacil's team due to his versatility. His ability to play both as a right winger and a false nine would provide Real Sociedad with different offensive options. Despite not having a leading role at Aston Villa, he has demonstrated his threat potential, tallying four goals and four assists in 21 matches across all competitions.

On the other hand, PSG would be willing to negotiate his departure as they do not see him as part of their long-term project. The success of the operation will rely on Real Sociedad's financial margin and their ability to persuade the player that his future lies in San Sebastián.
