5 players Chelsea should target this summer

#3 Marco Asensio

Asensio has becoming increasingly unhappy with the lack of playing time at the Bernabeu

Ever since breaking into the Real Madrid first-team, Marco Asensio has become a hit among supporters - but the creative Spaniard is said to be unsure about his long-term future, having been frozen out of the senior squad for sustained periods this season.

According to reports in the Express, the 22-year-old has even informed team-mate Isco that if they were to make an approach for Eden Hazard, he'd make clear his intentions for a move to Chelsea. This could see him form a partnership alongside former team-mate Álvaro Morata, who he'd expect to help settle into life in west London.

Real themselves are eyeing a lucrative move for Hazard and despite his quality, could use Asensio as a bargaining chip to land the Belgian international this summer. Chelsea could also then proceed to build the team around Asensio for years to come, just like they did with a young Hazard from Ligue 1 side Lille in 2012.
