Real Madrid midfield maestro has distinctly fallen out of favor under the manager Santiago Solari and it’s report in England are to believed Isco could be heading to the Premier League.
The Spaniard thrived under the management of Zinedine Zidane and established himself as a integral part of Real Madrid first team squad. Isco inherited a key role under Zidane’s successor Julen Lopetegui before he was sacked last month.
However, his avowed attitude problems under Solari could have played a part in his actions from the squad. Isco has not earned a single start under the Argentine head coach. Premier League giants Chelsea, Manchester City, Arsenal and Tottenham are reportedly lining up potential transfer war when the window reopens in January.
LETS JUST GO DOWN THE PATH..
November 2010, then Valencia manager Unai Emery handled Isco his senior debut. Yes, the duo of Unai Emery and Isco didn’t last long as Malaga CF activated his buy out clause of €6 million and snapped him up from Los Che Els Taronges.
It has been eight years since and the pair could reunite with multiple reports linking him to Arsenal.
Emery have started rebuilding his Arsenal – and it looks like that is going well so far for the Gunners, with the likes of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Lucas Torreira, Hector Bellerin and many others thriving in the Spaniard’s system.
Isco could be the marquee signing Arsenal need – the one that would take Arsenal TO THE NEXT LEVEL.
Its just an exciting prospect too think about having Isco at Arsenal and it could help bridge the gap between Arsenal and runaway leaders Manchester City.
WATCH: ISCO ‘THE MAGICIAN’
HOW COULD HE FIT AT ARSENAL?
Isco needs to have freedom to roam to be able to play his game and that does complement with Emery’s way of plying his trade with his tactical setup.
At Madrid, Isco has struggled to get in the team because there isn’t a suitable position for him – Yeah, he is that good everywhere. That could again just turn out as Unai Emery wants, Isco’s versatility upfront helps some ‘in games’ tactical changes which Unai Emery loves.
Isco wears ‘Number 10‘, though in reality – this guy plays absolutely everywhere.
Last but not the least, Tactical Brilliance. Isco never stops moving and is in constant search for space, always available to receive a pass and possessing an eerie flair for exactly knowing the presence of opponents around him. His ability to pass and dribbling makes him an Asset worthy of having by your side.
Isco would be a real hit for the Gunners. He is in the prime of his career and considering his versatility, could be slipped into any of the attacking midfield positions, or even maybe even play deeper role as central midfielder.
If Arsenal are successful in securing Isco’s signature, you could feel that they are just one world class centre-back away from becoming serious title contenders.
