Liverpool are set to enter the race for Liverpool midfielder Isco as he looks for a summer exit from Real Madrid.
The 21-year-old Spanish playmaker only joined the Spanish giants last summer from Malaga and was considered one of the bright hopes in European football.
However, the arrival of Gareth Bale and the changing of the Madrid system by coach Carlo Ancelotti has seen the Spaniard used sparingly at the Bernabeu.
There is plenty of interest for the youngster, with Manchester City, Chelsea and more recently Paris Saint-Germain all linked with a move. FootballDirectNews.com understands that Liverpool are ready to throw their hat into the ring for Isco as they look for summer additions with Champions League experience. Reds boss Brendan Rodgers is keen on adding some more creativity and sees Isco as someone who can come in and work with Luis Suarez, Philippe Coutinho and Daniel Sturridge next season.
The expected arrival of Sevilla’s Ivan Rakitic in the summer is expected to push Isco out of the Bernabeu door. Watch Arsenal v Everton, West Ham v Liverpool on Sunday.
