    Asensio to continue run of games






    Youngster scored against Sevilla and Real Sociedad

    The breakout star of this season so far will make his home debut in the league for Real Madrid on Saturday, as Marco Asensio prepares to take on the challenge of Celta Vigo at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu.
    Scoring on his competitive debut in the 3-2 win over Sevilla in the UEFA Super Cup, his first trophy, the attacking midfielder followed that up with the second goal of a 3-0 win over Real Sociedad in the first game of the new LaLiga season.
    It has been a spectacular month for the 20-year-old, who will surely start for Los Blancos this weekend ahead of the injured Isco and James Rodriguez, who will have to bide his time on the bench.
    Asensio signed for Real Madrid from his hometown club Mallorca, just over a year after his first senior game, and had a spell on loan with Espanyol last season, scoring five goals in 34 appearances.
    The Champions League winners are still without Karim Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo through injury, and it will be the litmus test of Zinedine Zidane whether or not he continues to give Asensio minutes when they return.
