This August 16, 2020 marks the fourth anniversary of Marco Asensio's presentation with Real Madrid. A very special act in which the young player ended up emotional when he remembered his deceased mother when he was just a child.
The Spaniard then, after a transitional season at RCD Espanyol, arrived in the capital with the task of convincing Zidane and he succeeded. In fact, in his first official match, the final of the European Super Cup against Sevilla, the Frenchman placed him as the starter and scored a real goal. Your cover letter.
Obstacle overcome
Now, four years later, he is experiencing a very unique moment as he has overcome the greatest challenge of his sports career (cruciate ligament tear) and is ready to be one of the leaders of the white team during the next season. His team awaits him, because he knows his quality, and, after a short summer of signings, each white card takes on greater importance.
Asensio, scoring a goal in the League
Together with Benzema and Hazard, Asensio is postulated as the last wicker of the attack of a Zidane in need of a goal and with whom Marco has always connected. The Balearic Islands will therefore begin his fifth season as a Madrid player and will now enter the ranks of those who, in an increasingly young team, he is beginning to be a veteran.
