Raúl Asencio ready to extend contract with Real – final details left
This season, Raúl Asencio has secured a spot in Real Madrid's starting lineup, and the club intends to reward him with a new agreement.
Details: According to insider Fabrizio Romano, the parties are close to signing a long-term contract. The final details will be agreed upon next week, but there are no doubts about the extension – Asencio will stay with the club. The player wants to win trophies with Real.
Earlier it was reported that he is accused of distributing child pornography, for which he faces up to five years in prison. The player has now spoken out on the matter.
Raúl Asencio claims he is not guilty. He remains calm about the situation and, despite the pressure, finds motivation in it.
Reminder: The incident occurred during his time with Real's youth team. While on vacation in the Canary Islands, his friends filmed a sexual act with two local girls without their consent. Today, the court rejected the 21-year-old player's appeal, keeping him among the accused.
