Juventus keen on Real Madrid midfielder Marco Asensio?

Juventus have reportedly identified Real Madrid midfielder Marco Asensio as a potential summer signing.

Asensio has - so far - failed to build on the promising start to his career with Real, and just two goals and two assists have come from 14 starts and 12 substitute outings in La Liga and the Champions League this season.

The 23-year-old still has over four years remaining on his contract, but according to Tuttosport, that has not stopped Juventus holding an interest in the player.

The Italian giants have continued to dominate in Serie A this season but it has been a different story in Europe, and there is a desire to strengthen the squad in the summer.

There has also been a suggestion in the past that Cristiano Ronaldo would be in favour of his former teammate making the switch to Turin.
