During this transfer market window, AC Milan are on the hunt for a playmaker, even after signing Brahim Diaz on a renewed loan deal.
Isco of Real Madrid is reportedly one of the names being monitored by the Rossoneri. The Spanish 29-year-old attacking midfielder has one more year left running in his contract and he seems set to be leaving Los Blancos.
Cash-strapped Real Madrid want to generate more money and save costs after letting go of Varane and Sergio Ramos.
Isco is not included in Carlo Ancelotti's plans and the club has communicated that his services are no longer required.
To be convinced of leaving the Spanish giants, a good offer which proposes an ambitious and strong project would be key for Isco, and Milan is one of the candidates for that, writes Calciomercato.it.
His qualities and abilities would be a great asset for Stefano Pioli in Serie A. The issue, however, remains that of the salary. Isco earns a net salary per season around 6.5 million euros. Milan could convince him to reduce his salary if a long-duration contract is proposed.
As for Real Madrid, they have made it known that the pricetag of Isco is set at 20 million euros. However, a discount is not excluded. The two respective club managements will be meeting next Sunday in a friendly match which will be the perfect opportunity to talk about this potential deal, concludes the website.
