Militao’s injury and the end of his season with Real Madrid have sparked numerous rumours about his expected replacement. However, Florentino Pérez remains firm in his stance.
According to information from the Spanish newspaper “Defensa Central”, the option of signing Sergio Ramos has not even been considered by the Real Madrid board. Pérez has reportedly told Ancelotti: “We will not sign him, it’s over!”
The newspaper added that Real Madrid is fully convinced they have a young centre-back with enormous potential. In fact, many people within the club expect this player to play a significant role in the near future.
Despite the team’s victory over Osasuna, the match resulted in several injuries, giving Raúl Asensio the opportunity to make his first-team debut after Militao’s injury. From the very first moment, the young player impressed, showing the potential that could make him a key part of the team’s line-up.
Inside the club, there are reports that Asensio has enormous potential, to the point that he is already being compared to players like Coparci or Euro, provided that he proves his consistency and reliability in crucial situations. All signs point to Asensio having an important role in Carlo Ancelotti’s squad, at least until the winter transfer window.
The Italian coach commented on Asensio’s performance: “He played excellently, and it was a pleasant surprise. We have to thank Raúl for the great work he has done. We need him during this difficult period.” Indeed, Asensio’s contribution was not limited to just his assists; he also showcased his defensive abilities, as well as his technical skills with the ball.
Raúl Asensio del Rosario is the latest talent to emerge from Real Madrid’s “La Fábrica” academy, and he was able to prove himself in a historic match where he provided a brilliant assist that helped break Jude Bellingham’s goal drought.
In times of crisis, it is often the academy players who save the day. Raúl Asensio seems ready to play this role, emerging as a new jewel in Real Madrid’s storied history.
The club is fully convinced that he can build a solid career in the first team. The coming weeks will be a significant opportunity for Asensio to prove his worth and solidify his place in the team.
