Spanish international and Real Madrid player Isco appears to be on United’s wish list once again. After a blazing start to his career at Santaigo Bernabeu following his arrival from Malaga, Isco has found it difficult to displace any of Madrid’s top 3 attackers Ronaldo, Gareth Bale or Karim Benzema.
The Spanish international has had very few playing opportunities under Carlo Ancelotti featuring in 16 out of a possible 30 Liga Leagues matches and half of the UEFA Championship matches. Isco once admitted that he felt frustrated at Madrid and needs more playing time to be able to play regularly for Spanish first team.
Manchester City was keen on signing him last season but the deal fell through. The 21 year old Spanish international now has a chance of reuniting with his former boss Manuel Pellegrini at City. But as it stands now, United appear to be leading the chase for the player.
According to Madrid based daily AS, Man United is reported to be willing to offer of £28m for the services of this prodigious attacking midfielder. This will afford Isco an opportunity of teaming up with former Real Madrid youth team player Juan Mata who signed for Manchester United in the January transfer window.
The beleaguered Manchester United coach David Moyes, reports say, have been handed a war chest to buy quality players that would bring United back to her former glory and he sees Isco as an important part of that mission.
Moyes understands what the stakes are. This had better not be like last season summer transfer window where we chased several quality players but only ended with a mediocre Mourane Felliani. His continued stay as coach of Manchester United is contingent upon the quality of players he is able to attract to Old Trafford and how soon they find their winning formular.
