Paris Saint Germain may hold the key to whether Chelsea do sign their star targets from Real Madrid or not next summer with Diario Gol reporting the Blues are interested in Marcos Asensio, but with Neymar on Real Madrid’s radar, the deal is more complicated than earlier thought.
Real are chasing after Neymar next summer according to reports in Spain, and PSG themselves want one star from Zinedine Zidane’s camp to join if Neymar leaves.
The French giants want Asensio to be part of an exchange deal next summer as they seek to snatch the opportunity to land one of the most promising youngsters in world football.
The 22-year old has been a target of Chelsea who have been advised by Alvaro Morata to go in for his former Real teammate, but with Real’s interest in Neymar, the deal will not be straightforward.
Real must accept PSG’s proposal to accept the part exchange deal including Asensio, if Diario Gol’s report are to be believed, or risk losing out on the former Barcelona hot shot.
This puts Chelsea behind in negotiations as Blues chiefs hope for a breakdown in talks between Real and PSG.
