Raúl Asencio is living a waking dream. Promoted to the pro group due to the numerous absences in defense, the hitherto unknown defender could even obtain an extension in the coming weeks with Real Madrid. According to information from Releve, the 21-year-old defender would even have passed Jesus Vallejo in the hierarchy, because his only appearance with Real ended with a great assist for Jude Bellingham during the victory against Osasuna (4 -2), just before the truce.
Registered on the list for the Champions League, Asencio should be in future trips to Liverpool, then Bergamo, where he even competes for a starting place in the absence of Eder Militão, victim of a serious knee injury. This place was to be reserved for another of his friends from Castilla, but the great hope of the Madrid training center, Joan Martinez, also ruptured his cruciate ligaments at the start of the season. It just goes to show that the misfortune of one person can really bring happiness to others.
