Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti admits Marco Asensio is in talks to move away.

The Spain winger is inside the final year of his contract and has been linked with Arsenal, Manchester United and Liverpool this summer.

He was Los Blancos' third top scorer in the 2021-22 campaign with 12 strikes, only behind Karim Benzema and Vinicius Jr.

But Asensio has been limited to just seven minutes of top-flight action this term after falling down the pecking order.

And now Ancelotti has confirmed that Asensio, who can operate as a winger and attacking midfielder, has asked to leave Real.

Quoted by AS, he said: "Marco is looking at something to see if he can leave."
