Fed-up Real Madrid attacker Marco Asensio ready to talk Barcelona terms

Real Madrid attacker Marco Asensio is ready to enter Bosman talks with Barcelona.

Both the player and his entourage are disappointed with Carlo Ancelotti's recent sporting decisions, which have relegated him to an outsider, says Sport.

The Spanish international is willing to listen to Barça, but for now the Blaugrana have not made a move.

Just when it seemed that Asensio's renewal by Madrid was on track, the player has begun to lose prominence in an alarming way and his situation exploded in the match against Betis at the Benito Villamarín.

Ancelotti had him warming up for more than half an hour before finally not giving him a chance. The Italian coach even had to explain this strange situation at the end of the game to the obvious anger of the player. For now there is no agreement on his continuity and relations have become very tense.

AC Milan and Arsenal have spoken to his entourage and would be willing to bid for the player, while Barça are fully informed of everything that is happening with his negotiations with Madrid.

For now, neither of the two parties have made a step forward but the Blaugrana already know that Asensio would be willing to listen to an offer.

Barca see Asensio as a great market opportunity, but will not interfere in his future with Madrid. In the event that the two sides end up breaking up, as looks likely to happen, the Blaugrana will decide if he is a viable signing for next season.
