DBasia.news – Arsenal manager Unai Emery is anxious about injury to Marco Asensio, the Real Madrid midfielder. The reason, Asensio injury could affect the chance of Dani Ceballos to move to Arsenal.
Marco Asensio suffered a serious injury in the match against Arsenal in the 2019 International Champions Cup, at FedExField, Wednesday (24/7). The Spaniard only played 20 minutes.
Marco Asensio reportedly suffered a serious injury to the knee. In fact, he was immediately rushed to the hospital. Some media reported, Asensio threatened to be absent for a long period of time.
The news also influenced Arsenal’s efforts to get Dani Ceballos. Real Madrid are predicted not to let Ceballos go because the supply of midfielders is thinning.
Speaking after the match, Unai Emery said he could not do much if Real Madrid canceled plans to borrow Ceballos.
“I don’t know. Our target is also not to get injured in the match and they experience it in the Asensio incident,” Emery said as Goal reported.
Arsenal are reportedly one step away from getting Dani Ceballos. The Gunners will borrow the player for one season without a ransom option.
“It can be bad for them and us. I don’t know whether it can change something,” explained the manager.
Meanwhile, from the results of the match, Real Madrid managed to win 3-2 in the high-toss round. Previously, the two clubs played strongly 2-2.
