Asencio's injury won't affect transfer plans, remains on Real Madrid's departure list

According to Marca, Asencio's injury is expected to have limited impact on his future, and he remains on Real Madrid's transfer list.

Real Madrid has suffered its first preseason injury setback. Under new coach Mourinho, defender Raúl Asencio has become the team's first injured player.

Real Madrid officially released a medical statement confirming that Asencio suffered a "rectus femoris muscle injury in his right thigh" and is undergoing recovery.

Asencio started in Real Madrid's internal friendly match against Leganés last Tuesday and played the first half. However, the youth academy center-back was later found to have physical issues.

It is reported that Asencio is expected to be sidelined for 4 to 6 weeks, meaning he will miss the remaining preseason fixtures and is also likely to miss the start of the new La Liga season.

Reports indicate that this injury is expected to have limited impact on his future. Asencio remains on Real Madrid's transfer list, particularly after the club recently signed Liverpool defender Ibrahima Konaté on a free transfer, which has intensified competition for the center-back position.

Real Madrid believes this injury is a minor muscle problem and will not alter the club's previous plans regarding his future. Asencio must recover quickly to explore new opportunities before the transfer window closes.
