Everton are interested in Real Madrid centre-back Raúl Asencio, who could leave the Spanish capital for more consistent playing time. According to Fichajes, Everton has competition from Galatasaray and Napoli.

Everton are preparing a €30 million bid for Raul Asencio, who is also on West Ham’s summer shortlist. Asencio is seen as a potential leader for Everton’s defence for the next decade and as representing a statement of intent in the transfer market. Raul Asencio is said to be open to a move and is reportedly disappointed with his inconsistent minutes this term, despite signing a new contract at Real Madrid last summer. Los Blancos are not ruling out a potential transfer, as long as their asking price is met. The defender has an Estimated Transfer Value (ETV) of €37.1m.

Everton are interested in signing Real Madrid's Spanish defender Raul Asencio at the end of the season and are preparing a formal offer of €30 million. According to reports from Spain, West Ham United are also interested in the 23-year-old defender, but Everton have become the main contender to complete the signing. Asencio joined Real Madrid in July 2024, is under contract until 2031, and has made 19 appearances and scored 2 goals in LaLiga this season.
