Asensio has been on their radar for a while, and the club believes securing a loan deal for him would be relatively simple, per The Mail.

The 29-year-old Spanish international is contracted with Paris Saint-Germain until June 2026. 

He joined PSG from Real Madrid in July 2023, but is not a regular at the Parisien club. 

Asensio has netted seven goals in 47 appearances for PSG and scored 61 times in 286 matches for Real Madrid.
