Real Madrid defender trains on fourth straight off-day to turn his situation around

Real Madrid defender trains on fourth straight off-day to turn his situation around

Real Madrid’s defence is set to see wholesale changes next season with big departures and arrivals likely to take place in June.

With the club eyeing a big-name signing in the department in the summer, it is understood that there must be some departures from defence as well.

Raul Asencio, in recent weeks, has been seen as such a transferable asset, especially given how he had a falling out with the manager and dressing room by questioning Alvaro Arbeloa’s decisions and pulling out of the match-day squad.

Working hard for a comeback

As relayed last week, Asencio took steps towards turning his situation around by publicly apologising not only to his teammates but to the manager for his errors.

Now, El Chiringuito bring to light that Asencio is working hard at the Valdebebas to earn a return to Arbeloa’s plans and to prove his desire to stay at the club.
