Reports claimed Real Madrid will let Isco leave for a club like Chelsea if they meet the £59 million asking price.
Since the news broke in the media over the past few weeks revealing that Chelsea WILL NOW BE ABLE TO SIGN players during the January transfer window, there has been a lot of transfer speculation in the media about whom the Blues could make a move for.
It is no secret that Frank Lampard has one of the most exciting sides in the Premier League, but there is a big feeling around the media that he needs to spend some serious money in order to add some experienced, world class talent to his very young side.
And that has led to ALOT of reports in the media suggesting that Isco is high up on the shopping list, as the Spaniard is reportedly unhappy with his game time at the Bernabeu, especially since he is now in the prime of his footballing career.
According to Spanish publication El Desmarque says that Los Blancos offered the Spaniard to Chelsea at the end of 2019 for £44million (€52m), hoping to fund a move for Christian Eriksen with the fee, but although a deal could not be agreed then, Florentino Perez now wants at least £59m (€70m) for the player and will let him leave if that asking price is met.
Isco is a top-class player that has tons of ability and signing him would be a real statement of intent from Lampard, and considering there is a lot of transfer speculation in the media about the future of William, who else would be better that Isco to come in and help replace the Brazilian.
He would, and could be, a real statement signing for Lampard if he was able to complete this transfer deal, especially for a fee that is nothing in todays football transfer market
