Marcos Asensio has again stated he expects to make his career at Real Madrid.

The midfielder was at Espanyol last season where he was involved in most La Liga games before returning to his parent club.

"My idea is to play for Real Madrid," he said before admitting that he has not talked with Zinedine Zidane.

The coach has included the Mallorcan in his plans for preseason, which could be seen as a positive sign.
