Real Madrid, Solari send message to Liverpool and Juventus target
“The only manifestations that I am interested in are those on the pitch”, Solari replied.
“We are all working hard: the fans, the president, the technical staff and the players.”
“Asensio has to do the same that his team-mates do. Players must do the talking on the pitch. You got to show your qualities every time that the ball is rolling.”
Asensio complained because media saw him as the man who should have ‘kept the Real Madrid machine running”.
“There are many experienced players – Asensio replied – I am not the only one who has this duty.”
A few days ago Asensio rectified his words but maybe that wasn’t enough to impress Santiago Solari, the new boss at the Santiago Bernabeu after the sacking of Julen Lopetegui.
Asensio has been linked with moves to Liverpool or Juventus as both Jurgen Klopp and Massimiliano Allegri are long-time admirers of the Spaniard. His tough relationship with Solari so far could play in favor of both European giants who will be seeking for attacking reinforcements in the summer.
