Juventus join Arsenal & Man Utd in race for Real Madrid star

Reports from Spain suggest that Real Madrid midfielder Marco Asensio is in high demand across Europe. The 21-year-old Majorcan star, who broke into the starting XI last season under coach Zinedine Zidane, wants more regular game time next term and has told club President Florentino Perez that if the club cannot guarantee this, then are other options available to him.
 
Premier League duo Arsenal and Manchester United are huge admirers and both clubs have been linked with potential moves for the player. Gunners boss Arsene Wenger sees Asensio as a potential successor to Alexis Sanchez should the Chilean depart before the August 31 deadline. United coach Jose Mourinho is also understood to have made enquiries and according to Don Balon, there could be a new player in town with Juventus now also being linked with his services.
 
Bianconeri tactician Massimo Allegri is believed to also want Asensio as a potential successor to one of his top stars with stories linking Paolo Dybala to Barcelona failing to go away. Ansensio now looks to hold all the aces in this particular transfer tale.
