According to Don Balon, Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola wants an £88.5m deal with Real Madrid for midfielder Isco whose ‘future remains unclear’.
The £115k-per-week favourite could leave Real if president Florentino Perez accepts the offer ‘put on the table’ from Pep.
City have been keen on Isco for some time, with their manager deeming the 26-year-old as the last piece of the puzzle in midfield.
The Spanish international could pull the strings and would be a replacement for the ageing David Silva.
Signed by Real from Malaga in 2013, Isco has gone on to make 237 appearances for Los Blancos in all competitions.
