LA LIGA: trio Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are busy pressing ahead with their transfer plans. Express Sport brings you the latest news.
It has emerged that, while Messi has agreed to renew his contract, the Argentina star is yet to actually sign it.
And BetStars say Chelsea are 7/2 favourites, along with Paris Saint-Germain, to land the 29-year-old.
Messi’s former club Newell’s Old Boys are priced at 5/1.
While Manchester United and Manchester City are available at 12/1 and 8/1 respectively.
That’s according to Spanish outlet Don Balon.
Arsene Wenger is said to be an admirer of the 21-year-old, who struck in both Spanish Super Cup games against Barcelona.
Arsenal are on the lookout for potential replacements for Alexis Sanchez.
However, Asensio is supposedly keen to remain at Real despite being below the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale in the pecking order.
“My destination is already made,” he said. “I must return to Atletico Madrid.
“It turns out that there is the impasse that Chelsea does not want to release me.
“But I believe that this situation will be resolved now on my return to Spain.”
