Scout report

Squad depthCentral defender

Raúl Asencio is a 23-year-old central defender at Real Madrid, rated 81.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 64th of 389 on scout potential in the La Liga. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (55.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.11 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Asencio.

Judged on this season alone, Asencio graded 30 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 37th of 75 of the 75 centre-backs in the La Liga, on 7 clean sheets and 2.11 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 28 → 30).

On long-term talent our Rating reads 81, top 15% of the 75 centre-backs in the La Liga. At 23 Asencio is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 89.8 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Asencio missed 4 games through injury (illness, neck, muscle) out of roughly 38 this season. The 23 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Clean sheets

2.11 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 23 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 95.5/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 55.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 81.3, Asencio carries the 11th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the La Liga (top 15%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.11 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
