Xabi Alonso will exclude Asensio from the main squad

Xabi Alonso is looking to implement a game consisting of three central defenders in his team. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

At the same time, Real's head coach did not find Raul Asensio's performance satisfactory. According to Ok Diario, Asensio, who emerged from the academy of the "royals," did not manage to impress in the World Club Championship match.

Therefore, he is not expected to be considered as a player in the main squad for the new season. Overall, Raul Asensio is expected to drop to a secondary role soon.

Additionally, Real may bring in a new player for the defense line this summer, Ibrahima Konate. This could further complicate Asensio's position in the team.

The 22-year-old Raul Asensio has so far played 46 matches for Real's first team, providing two assists in those games. His position and future in the team depend on the coach's new plans.
