PREMIER LEAGUE giants Liverpool are interested in signing Real Madrid star Marco Asensio, according to reports.

The winger, 25, is struggling for minutes under Real boss Carlo Ancelotti and it's believed he may be available in the near future.

According to Spanish outlet Fichajes.Net, Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp wants to rebuild his team and believes Asensio could be the perfect signing.

The Spaniard hasn't been an automatic pick under Ancelotti this term but scored a hat-trick in their 6-1 win against Mallorca on Wednesday.

Rumours suggest the international will hold talks with his gaffer over his future and could be allowed to leave the Bernabeu if they turn sour.

Ancelotti has plenty of attacking options to choose from, including Gareth Bale, Eden Hazard, Karim Benzema and Vinicius Junior.

Real are also hoping to sign Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappe on a free transfer next summer, further restricting Asensio's playing time.

Reports in August claimed Arsenal were leading the race for Asensio's signature but Liverpool can offer the player Champions League football.

But the Gunners do appear to have a good relationship with Real following the signings of Dani Ceballos and Martin Odegaard.

Asensio has played 134 LaLiga games for Real since his making his debut in 2016, winning two Spanish titles and two Champions Leagues.

At international level, he's picked up 25 senior caps to date and helped Spain win a Silver medal at the Toyko Olympics in the summer.

Premier League clubs Leeds, Leicester and Everton have also been linked with the Real ace in recent months.

AC Milan and Serie A rivals are also reportedly interested in the player as they continue to rebuild their squads in pursuit of European glory.
