Marco Asensio Thrives at Aston Villa, Set to Bid Farewell to PSG

Spanish midfielder Marco Asensio, currently on loan at Aston Villa from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), has found his stride in the Premier League and is reportedly not planning to return to the French capital. The 29-year-old, who joined PSG as a free agent in 2023, has experienced a remarkable resurgence under Unai Emery’s management at Villa Park.

Since his winter transfer to Birmingham, Asensio has rediscovered the form that made him a standout at Real Madrid. In just 11 appearances across all competitions for Aston Villa, he has netted an impressive eight goals and provided one assist. This tally surpasses his entire goal output for PSG since joining the club last year.

Asensio’s contract with PSG runs until 2026, but sources indicate he has no intention of extending his stay or returning to the club. His successful spell at Aston Villa has caught the attention of the club’s hierarchy, with Monchi, the president of football operations, keen on securing Asensio’s services on a permanent basis.

As Asensio prepares to face his parent club in the Champions League quarter-finals, his future seems increasingly likely to be away from Paris. The player’s resurgence has not gone unnoticed, with PSG reportedly fielding numerous inquiries about his availability. As the summer transfer window approaches, all eyes will be on Asensio’s next move, with Aston Villa emerging as a strong contender for his signature.
