In recent years, Real Madrid's academy has been a major protagonist in the football world. From Nacho Fernández and Dani Carvajal, who led the club to another European conquest, to the significant sales of quality players who now star in LaLiga. Now, City enters the scene.

Is the End Near? Davies Could Leave Bayern

Raúl Asencio, a key player in Raúl González's successful Castilla team, is rumored to be reinforcing the City Group, with plans to position him at Girona and replicate the successful formula they experienced with Miguel Gutiérrez, who became a standout not just for the team but for all of LaLiga.

Asencio's great potential is recognized not only by the City Group but also by Raúl, who expects great things from the player for the next season. Currently, the Spanish defender is training to start the new football year in good physical shape.

Securing the player's services will not be an easy task. Beyond the 10.8 million euros being offered, the buy-back options that Madrid imposes on its academy players complicate the signing of the talented Spanish defender for Girona. For his part, Ancelotti counts on him for the preseason, but the option to play in the Champions League is a very difficult offer to refuse.
