Arsenal linked with top-class playmaker

|

Real Madrid are ready to allow fringe player Isco leave the Spanish club in January according to Sport, with Metro claiming that Arsenal are one of the Premier League side interested in signing the artisan playmaker.

The former Malaga attacking midfielder has sublime skills and a remarkable range of passing, but the presence of other top-class players at the Santiago Bernabeu has restricted his time on the pitch.

Zinedine Zidane has preferred to play the likes of Casemiro, Luka Modric and Toni Kroos this season in his starting XI, with Isco forced to watch on from the sidelines.

The Spain international is not part of the Madrid coach’s long-term plans according to the latest report, with the Frenchman set to allow him to leave in order to find regular first-team football elsewhere.

This has led to both Arsenal and North London rivals Spurs being linked with him and the prospect of a January deal.
