Marcelino García Toral wants Raúl Asencio as a new signing for Villarreal and has already conveyed this directly to the sports management. The Asturian coach believes that the Real Madrid center-back is the ideal piece to strengthen the defense of the Yellow Submarine for a demanding season, where in addition to the league, the club is returning to the Champions League, as reported by Nacional.

Following the departures of Álex Baena to Atlético Madrid, Thierno Barry to Everton, and Raúl Albiol, the coach demands a reliable defensive reinforcement and has put Asencio's name on the table.

The situation of the young center-back at Real Madrid is becoming increasingly complicated. The arrival of Dean Huijsen and the definitive adaptation of Tchouaméni as a defensive option, along with Militao, Rüdiger, and Alaba, leave him with very little room to shine in Xabi Alonso's team.

The Madrid coach does not consider him a priority for rotation, opening the door for a departure, especially because the player seeks playing time not to miss the chance of being on Spain's list for the 2026 World Cup.

Villarreal presents an attractive destination: a guaranteed presence in the Champions League and the promise of being a starter in Marcelino's scheme. The idea of the Castellon team involves negotiating with Real Madrid for a loan with a purchase option, a formula that would benefit all parties involved.

Asencio is already aware he won't have a prominent role at the Bernabéu, and the Villarreal coach wants to persuade him that his immediate future involves wearing yellow. In the upcoming weeks, it is expected that negotiations with the white club will progress to close the deal before the transfer window closes.
