Arsenal Lining Up Massive £75m Bid for Real Madrid Starlet Marco Asensio as Transfer Deadline Nears

Arsenal are lining up an optimistic bid for Real Madrid starlet Marco Asensio.

After signing Alexandre Lacazette from Lyon and Sead Kolasinac from Schalke, Arsenal have been quiet in recent weeks of the transfer window but could be set to make a massive signing in the form of Asensio.

Seen as one of the best young talents in Spain, Asensio has established himself as an important first-team member for Los Blancos under Zinedine Zidane and has a penchant for scoring huge goals for the club, including a strike in last season's Champions League final.
