Report: Bayern Munich Make Contact to Sign Real Madrid Midfielder Isco

Bayern Munich have reportedly made first contact over a move to sign Real Madrid midfielder Isco after he's fallen out of favour at the Santiago Bernabeu.

SportBild (h/t AS' Manolete) reported Bayern are targeting Isco as one piece of the player overhaul said to be due at the Allianz Arena, with the playmaker seemingly out of manager Santiago Solari's plans.

Predecessor Julen Lopetegui used Isco rather prominently during his short-lived tenure, but Solari has since demoted the former Malaga star back to the bench.

The 26-year-old has gone from five starts in seven league appearances under Lopetegui to no starts in four league appearances under Solari, and Sport's Rik Sharma provided further context:
