In the summer transfer window, Liverpool have been in the spotlight as Marco Asensio looks to leave Real Madrid.
AS claimed last month that AC Milan is eager to sign the Spanish international but is unable to pay the £34.5 million transfer fee or the required wage demands. Liverpool, on the other side, has made him a sizable contract offer.
According to the most recent information from Sport Today (see news image below), the 26-year-old attacker has not reacted to the Los Blancos’ request for a contract extension, and his future is not at the Bernabeu.
According to the Catalan source, Asensio’s first option is to join Italian champions AC Milan.
However, due to manager Stefano Pioli’s desire for the Rossoneri to sign Azzurri player Domenico Berardi from Sassuolo, the option is likely to expire.
Asensio is reportedly waiting for the Liverpool offer to materialize, according to Sport. Along with the Merseysiders, clubs like Arsenal, Manchester United, and Juventus are all hoping to sign the player.
£34.5million star waiting for Liverpool offer to materialize with first option about to close – Report
Marco Asensio is looking to leave Real Madrid in the summer transfer window and Liverpool have been in the lime light.

The Catalan source claim that Asensio’s first option, which he likes the most, is to move to Italian champions, AC Milan.
However, the option is about to close because manager, Stefano Pioli, wants the Rossoneri to hire the services of Azzurri star, Domenico Berardi, from Sassuolo.
Now, Sport state that Asensio is waiting for the Liverpool offer to materialize. In addition to the Merseysiders, the likes of Arsenal, Man United and Juventus are also interested in luring the player.
Over the years, the La Roja star mainly warmed the bench under the management of Zinedine Zidane, moreover, last season, he was unable to earn a regular starting spot under Carlo Ancelotti.
He was ignored by Luis Enrique for the European Championships last year and without regular first team football, he might miss out on selection for the World Cup as well.
Liverpool do need to strengthen the depth of the wide attacking positions and Asensio has the quality and experience to reinforce the offense. However, even at Anfield, the former Mallorca loanee would not be a guaranteed starter.
