Marco Asensio could be the likely heir to Ronaldo

Real Madrid have a lot of young talent on their cards as Zidane was keen on promoting youth either through the ranks or buying promising talent early.

All his work has paid off as Real Madrid now have one of the best young attackers in world football in the form of Marco Asensio. He had a stellar first season where he even scored in the Champions League final against Juventus.

Great things are expected of Asensio, but last season was not a great one for Asensio as he was constantly benched even after good performances..

Next season though, he will have one less player to compete with, and more importantly his favored left flank is now free for anyone who can impress Lopetegui. Asensio will be surely looking to grasp this opportunity with both hands.
