We prove that every finitely generated group with recursive aspherical presentation embeds into a group with finite aspherical presentation. This and several known facts about groups and manifolds imply that there exists a 4-dimensional closed aspherical manifold $M$ such that the fundamental group $\pi_1(M)$ coarsely contains an expander, and so it has infinite asymptotic dimension, is not coarsely embeddable into a Hilbert space, and does not satisfy the Baum-Connes conjecture with coefficients. Closed aspherical manifolds with any of these properties were previously unknown.
