Newcastle United could reportedly get the chance to seal the transfer of Marco Asensio very soon.

The Spain international’s future at Real Madrid is in major doubt as he edges towards the end of his contract, and he was a target for Newcastle and other clubs during the summer.

Fabrizio Romano has now provided a fresh update on Asensio, saying his future could be decided in January.

“But remember, Marco Asensio will be available on a free next summer because at the moment there is no agreement to extend his contract with Real Madrid,” Romano said.
