Zinedine Zidane has overseen the growth and progress of Marco Asensio at Real Madrid from youngster with potential to an absolute star. The 22-year-old Spanish international has enjoyed a successful season leading to a call-up to the 2018 World Cup squad.

Asensio has seen a consistent increase in playing time under Zidane who has monitored his progress brilliantly even in a team full of established superstars.

The faith shown in him by Zidane has led to Real Madrid rejecting a number of approaches for the young star. The resignation of the French tactician, however, will test the club's resolve to retain and continue developing Asensio. Real Madrid may move back to their Galacticos policy which could see Asensio's place in the team tumble into jeopardy.
