Real Madrid are back in good run of form in the La Liga as they are just a point behind Barcelona with a game in hand. One of the reasons to their success is the 21-year-old defender Raúl Asencio who have mixed up into the team well and shocked everyone with his performances.
As Real Madrid have shortage of defenders due to injury issues, Asencio got a chance and he has not left any bad mark on the team. With this performance, Real Madrid are happy and want to offer new deal to the defender (as per Fabrizio Romano). The defender’s contract is set to expire in 2026, but Madrid want the player to stay at the club for longer period.
Real Madrid are back in the thick of the La Liga title race, trailing league leaders Barcelona by just a single point while holding a crucial game in hand. A key factor in their resurgence has been the emergence of 21-year-old defender Raúl Asencio, who has seamlessly integrated into the squad and impressed fans and pundits alike with his performances.
With Real Madrid battling a defensive injury crisis, Asencio was thrust into the starting lineup—a daunting task for such a young player. However, he has exceeded expectations, delivering consistent and confident displays that have solidified his place in the team. His ability to read the game, coupled with composure under pressure, has ensured Madrid’s defense remains resolute despite the challenges.
