Real Madrid have reportedly decided that they would be willing to sell Marco Asensio for a fee in the region of £100m.
Asensio is regarded as one of the top prospects in European football, and the 22-year-old had been expected to make the step up as a key man at the Bernabeu after Cristiano Ronaldo's departure to Juventus.
However, Asensio has contributed just one goal and one assist from eight league games this season, and Marca reports that that has resulted in Real beginning to contemplate a sale.
The report claims that the European champions are ready to consider any bids of £100m, a valuation which is likely to catch the attention of both Liverpool and Chelsea, who have held an interest in the past.
Asensio may not be in any rush to leave Real, however, with the player having only recently penned a contract extension until 2023.
