Marco Asensio, Paris Saint-Germain’s 28-year-old midfielder/attacker under contract until 2026, has been struggling of late and has been rather sidelined by coach Luis Enrique. So the idea of a mercato departure is taking hold. Foot Mercato confirms the trend of the last few hours on Saturday: a loan to Aston Villa, while Cher Ndour (20-year-old midfielder on loan to Besiktas) is reportedly being sold to Serie A.
“The departures of Cher Ndour and Marco Asensio become clearer
Barring a major turn of events, Cher Ndour will be permanently sold to Fiorentina.
the player is expected in Florence this Sunday
contract runs until June 2029
dossier well on track
Aston Villa push for Marco Asensio loan. Discussions continue with PSG. ”
The good news is that the mercato closes in a few days’ time in almost all countries. This will calm things down, as rumours have been rife of late, with little confirmation. Asensio and Ndour will certainly see the light.
Hopefully, the Spaniard will be out on loan by then, and the Italian will be ready for his next challenge. It’s a time for optimism. However, nothing has yet been confirmed by either player or club. So we remain cautious, as always with rumours.
