Real Madrid’s young midfield maestro Marco Asensio has given a good account of himself whenever he’s played for Los Blancos, and with moments like this in training, it’s not hard to see why he’s so highly rated.
Controlling a ball dropping from high up in the air is one of football’s more difficult skills, but the 21-year-old executes it with ease here from James Rodriguez’s long pass.
Asensio’s sublime first touch is the latest display from a player who has slowly made his way into the Real Madrid first team after two loan spells following his move from Mallorca.
Is he the best young star on Real Madrid’s books?
