“We are in luck” – Spain manager Luis de la Fuente praises emerging RMD talent

Spain seems to have an endless conveyor belt of talent, and another to emerge in recent weeks was Raul Asencio. Real Madrid's defensive crisis has seen the 21-year-old feature in the club's last three games, in which he has proven to be more than capable.

Real Madrid officials are excited about Asencio, and that sentiment is reciprocated by Spain head coach Luis de la Fuente (via Diario AS), who will have his eye on the youngster for future national team selections.

“We already had him under control, he has been international in various categories. But we have to give him time because we don't want to go too fast and anticipate events. It is very good news for his club, for the player and for Spanish football. Raul is a great footballer of the future. We are lucky. He is fantastic in very difficult matches. He has the package and the category to perform at Real Madrid.”

Center back is a position that is up for grabs in the Spanish squad, so if Asencio manages to keep his place in Real Madrid's line-up in the coming months, he could have a chance to be involved during the next international break. in March.
