Is the latest gossip from today. Probably just wants game time or a new contract, but I'd personally take him over Coutinho.
Think Isco would be my first choice if all 3 were available though.

I'd love us to sign a David Silva, Messi, Hazard, type player to give us a bit of creativity and unpredictability.

If.its not a specialist winger we need though and this Asensio can see / deliver a pass or shoot.drom the right then why not him?

If he can deliver a pass, shot, cross from the right, then why not. However, I have not seen evidence of this since I have not seen him play from the right. That doesn't make him the ideal candidate to strengthen there, does it?

It would be great but you wouldn't want it an the expense or hinderance of Martial and Pogba on the left. Someone comofrtable on the right would create better balance for the team, I don't think that's Asensio, Coutinho or Isco.

Players of this caliber you can work into a team, specially somebody like Hazard who would instantly transform our attack.
Asensio isn't that level and doesn't naturally a fit into our style.

If no idea what he can do other than being very highly thought of. I just can't think of many right wingers who can cross and shoot from the Right.

Me neither, but I hope the vast scouting network the club pays for can find a solution.

They didn't for our CB, CM, LW or CF so I wouldn't gold your breathe

There are plenty of different right sided options out there who aren't Jadon Sancho:
Steven Bergwijn, Gelson Martins, Hirving Lozano, Nicolas Pepe, Leon Bailey and even Zaha for me is an option although people will disagree he can play off the right.

Asensio will be one of the world's best and would solve our RW problem. Posted before about him, all for it at the right price.
People keep talking Dalot up but I've seen little difference in his performances to Varela.

Asencio or Isco to play on the right and we can give them Lukaku.
