Florentino Pérez continues to demonstrate his exceptional management of Real Madrid. With two crucial Champions League round of 16 clashes against Atlético de Madrid on the horizon, the club president understands the importance of key players in this decisive phase of the season.

One of Real Madrid's standout players during this challenging period has been Raúl Asencio. Since making his debut a few months ago against Osasuna, the young defender has shown continuous growth under Carlo Ancelotti’s guidance.

According to Marca, Pérez recently met with Raúl Asencio to express the club’s unwavering support. The meeting comes after the defender was visibly shaken by the offensive chants directed at him by Real Sociedad fans during the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final. Asencio has expressed his gratitude for the club’s backing during this sensitive time.

Though his contract renewal remains uncertain, Asencio is determined to succeed at Real Madrid and is fully focused on achieving that goal. Despite transfer rumors swirling in recent weeks, there is no concrete sign that the centre-back will depart next summer. Both Ancelotti and the club’s leadership are convinced that Asencio has the potential to become a cornerstone of the team’s defense for the next decade.
