The first player to be 'fired' by Alonso after the Club World Cup

Raul Asencio paid the price after a disastrous performance in the tournament in the US.

Asencio lost the trust of coach Alonso.

Real Madrid's 0-4 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain at the 2025 Club World Cup left major consequences not only in terms of reputation but also directly affected the future of some players, especially Raul Asencio.

According to Fichajes , coach Xabi Alonso has bluntly asked Real Madrid's board of directors to liquidate Asencio in this summer transfer window.

The Spanish strategist believes that the team needs a more classy central defender, capable of playing in the defensive system he is building for the next phase.

As early as the match against PSG, Asencio created the conditions for Fabián Ruiz to score the opening goal with a naive and indecisive move. Before that, he committed a foul that led to a penalty against Pachuca and received a straight red card against Al Hilal. The consecutive mistakes completely destroyed the coaching staff's confidence.

Despite being considered a bright young talent and the “new Sergio Ramos”, Raul Asencio is now at great risk of being left out of Real’s long-term plans. The contract renewal of the 2003-born centre-back has also stalled and the sporting directors have begun looking for an alternative. Asencio’s future at the Bernabéu is more uncertain than ever.

PSG overwhelms Real Madrid In the early morning of July 10, PSG beat Real 4-0 to win a ticket to the FIFA Club World Cup final against Chelsea.
