Real Madrid have a number of players in their squad whose current deals run out in the summer. Of course, each case is unique. There are some that the club might be willing to let go. On the other hand, there are others that they want to keep. And it remains to be seen how successful they are in achieving these goals.
One of the players whose Real Madrid contract runs out at the end of the ongoing season is Marco Asensio. There is not expected to be any lack of interest in the Spaniard, if he did leave Santiago Bernabeu.
In the summer, he had been linked with clubs like Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Juventus and a number of others. But he has played his way into Carlo Ancelotti’s plans as the season has progressed.
As reported by Relevo, PSG wanted to get ahead of the rest of the interested teams and sought to get the signing of the Spaniard done in January. But Real Madrid will not listen to any offer for Asensio in this winter market. Their priority is to renew his contract.

Yes, Asensio might not be a regular starter for Real Madrid, but he is certainly a player that Ancelotti brings regularly off the bench.
Also, it would be difficult to find a replacement for Asensio, who is proven in La Liga and is capable of making a big impact coming on as a substitute.
Taking all these things into account, as well as the fact that Asensio is just 27 years of age, and it might be the best step for Real Madrid to extend the contract of the Spanish international and keep him at the club for the foreseeable future.
