According to his agent, Jorge Mendes, the player is unhappy at Fenerbahçe because of frequent management and squad changes and is also disappointed by the missed championship.

Fenerbahçe has established that Marco Asensio, a 30-year-old Spanish international, is not for sale. The attacking midfielder, who has 38 caps for his country, will not be sold regardless of the size of any offers. The club's board has decided that Asensio, who joined in September 2025 and is under contract until 2028, will continue playing in Turkey for at least one more year. His current market value is €15.00m, according to Transfermarkt. Villarreal and Atlético Madrid are among the clubs to have been linked with the player.
