Everton set to pounce: Real Madrid's Asensio eyed for a €30m move
Everton reportedly ready to pounce as Asensio seeks more minutes.

Everton eyeing Asensio move

It seems one Real Madrid player is on the verge of changing his fate this summer, after limited playing time under coach Álvaro Arbeloa.

Raúl Asensio is seeking an exit to earn more minutes rather than warming the bench for the Merengues.

In this context, Fichajes reported Everton plan to make an official offer worth 30 million euros to persuade Real Madrid to sell Asensio.

Madrid contract and Everton's plan

The Toffees want to sign the 23-year-old whose contract runs with Real Madrid until 2031.

Everton also intends to rebuild its defense with younger players after relying on veterans James Tarkowski and Michael Keane.

The Premier League would be the ideal stage for Asensio to strengthen his case for a first call-up with Spain.
