Chelsea Stumbles Again as Marco Asensio Shines… Away from PSG, Where He Was Deemed Unwanted.
Another former PSG player flourishing elsewhere—this time, it’s Marco Asensio, who, much like Randal Kolo Muani at Juventus, is reviving his career in the Premier League.
Chelsea’s struggles continued as they fell 2-1 to Aston Villa on Matchday 26. Despite an early goal from Enzo Fernandez (9′), the Blues were turned over by an inspired Marco Asensio.
On loan from PSG, the Spanish playmaker netted his first goals for Villa (57′, 89′), both assisted by Marcus Rashford. This win brings Aston Villa just one point behind Chelsea, increasing the pressure on the London club in the race for European spots.
