Spain Manager Urges Patience for Real Madrid’s Rising Star

Real Madrid finds itself in an unusual position with minimal representation in the Spanish national team. Apart from veteran Dani Carvajal, no current Real Madrid players feature prominently in Luis de la Fuente’s plans. While Dani Ceballos and Fran Garcia remain out of contention, the emergence of young talent Raul Asencio offers hope for both the club and Spanish football.

Asencio has shown promise in his early appearances at the top level, even in challenging matches like his recent UEFA Champions League debut. Despite being on the losing side, his performance highlighted his potential and resilience under pressure.

Spain’s national team coach, Luis de la Fuente, commented on Asencio’s development, emphasizing the importance of patience. He acknowledged the defender’s impressive qualities and maturity, particularly in high-stakes matches, and expressed optimism about his future for both Real Madrid and Spanish football.

De la Fuente stressed the need to nurture Asencio’s talent without rushing him, underscoring the defender’s ability to adapt to the demanding environment of Real Madrid at such a young age. Asencio’s progression marks a positive step not only for his club but also for the broader Spanish football landscape, as new talent continues to emerge.
