AC Milan have lost in the race to sign Sven Botman from Lille. The Dutch defender eventually chose to go to Newcastle after reportedly waiting for the Rossoneri. Now, the Rossoneri also have other targets in the mercato and it seems that Newcastle is also interested in a player who is linked with the red and black faithful too.
The player in question is Marco Asensio, right-winger of Real Madrid and his contract expires at the end of the current season.
According to the latest news by AS, the player is really liked by the Magpies. The Premier League side who escaped relegation last season are hoping to be able to secure his arrival and build a competitive squad around him and make him the centre of their project.
