Liverpool are said to have been handed a boost in their reported pursuit of Marco Asensio.
The Reds were linked with the Real Madrid forward over the course of the summer, but no move materialised. Asensio’s current contract is set to expire at the end of the season, with no signs of an extension.
Reports earlier this month suggested that Asensio had three possible destinations for next summer when he’ll be able to sign for a new club for free. Liverpool were mentioned in the report, along with AC Milan and Arsenal.
