“The time has come when I have to make a difficult decision, I have decided to embark on a new direction in my career, in search of a new project in which I can achieve new goals,” he said in a video shared on social media.
“Thank you Madridstas for all the unconditional support.”
Overall, Asensio made 285 appearances for Real, scoring 61 goals and setting up 32 more.
The winger has been linked with a move to Paris Saint-Germain.
