Real star Marco Asensio scored twice against Barca over two legs in the Spanish Super Cup, and since making headlines across Europe, his agent, Horacio Gaggioli, has revealed he turned down a move to the Catalan club in 2013.

Asensio is not, however, the only player to have chosen Los Blancos over their fierce rivals, with David Beckham being the biggest star to do so in the early 2000s. The Englishman was heavily linked with Barca in 2003, but according to former president Joan Laporta, the club felt Beckham and his team used them to attract interest from Los Blancos.

Laporta once told Marca: "It was between Beckham, Ronaldinho or (Thierry) Henry. United told us that they would sell him to us if we won the (presidential) election as we didn't have the power at that time. But they used us and in the end he signed for Madrid."

Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema were both believed to turn down moves to Barca for Real in 2009, with the Portuguese admitting at the time that he had an offer from the Catalans.

Mesut Ozil revealed in his autobiography, Magic of the Game, that he chose Real over their rivals because Pep Guardiola did not fight for his signature, while Spanish media have claimed that Angel Di Maria also had the option to sign for Barca in 2010.

Marca also claimed that Brazilian right back Danilo also decided to join Los Blancos rather than the Catalans, while the likes of Theo Hernandez, Dani Ceballos and Vinicius Junior all did so in recent times. Junior is expected to join Zinedine Zidane’s team in 2019, but it could very well have been the Blaugrana that he could have been running out for.
