The winger has already scored seven goals in just eight matches for his new side.
Last night Asensio netted twice as Villa beat Club Brugge 3-0 in the Champions League.
After the match, the former Real Madrid star spoke to TNT Sports reporter Becky Ives.
Despite having never played in England before, Asensio is already conducting interviews in English.
Ives was quick to praise the “humble” star after their interview.
She wrote on X: “He asked me afterwards if his English had been ok…..
“What a baller, but maybe more importantly want a lovely, humble human being he is! A major assets to this Villa squad!”
Asensio appeared to be thrilled with life at Villa Park.

He said: “Very happy for the victory, now we are in the quarter-final – that was the objective. Very happy for the team, for the fans and now we will continue.
“Incredible, every match we play here is top. We have to be grateful with the fans. They give great support to us and we are very happy.
“We want more, so now we will have a little break and then we will think about our upcoming objectives.
“I like to score there [Holte End]. I am very motivated and also very happy to be able to score the goal and contribute.”
Villa will play Asensio’s parent club PSG in the quarter-finals.
Due to Uefa regulations, Asensio WILL be able to play.
Uefa regulations state teams do not have “any influence whatsoever over the players that another club may (or may not) field in a match”.
Villa had the rule go against them earlier this season when on loan man Samuel Iling-Junior came on at Villa Park for Bologna in the league phase.
