Raúl Asencio's Reply to Those Who Compare Him to Sergio Ramos: I am...

Asencio is clear about what he wants for his future, and his comparison with Ramos puts it on the table

There is no doubt that Raúl Asencio is one of the players who has caused the most excitement among Madrid for quite some time on a defensive level. The academy player, who had the opportunity to debut this very season, has shown an outstanding level.

It has reached a point where he has been compared to a legend of the white team and soccer, such as Sergio Ramos.

In this regard, the same academy player of the white team has spoken about this comparison and feels flattered. "For me, it is an honor to be compared to Sergio Ramos. He's a role model, but I'm Raúl Asencio and I'll make my career the best one." Undoubtedly, his words are clear regarding what he wants to show for the present and future.

Asencio is convinced that he can build a reputation and an image of his own at Real Madrid with this level shown. Knowing perfectly well that he has a very interesting career ahead at the best club in the world to strengthen the defense.

Raúl is going all out

The Spanish footballer has demonstrated outstanding defensive qualities, even surpassing veterans. That grit that characterizes the youngest who want to secure a spot in the first team is more than evident in this player.

He has even won the affection of Madridists throughout the entire campaign, asking for him to be used as a starting center-back. In the current campaign, he has more than 1900 minutes played in 26 matches across all competitions. Although what matters most to the general public is his performance in the first team, where he has been quite solid.

Right now, the player is convinced that he can continue building a reputation within the club and progress exponentially. Something very feasible at just 21 years of age and with a very promising future on the horizon.

He wants to be a legend

The comparison with the legendary defender Sergio Ramos is merely an incentive to later become a merengue legend. The dream of every academy player has come true, and perhaps he, with his determination and quality, will achieve it.
