Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino speaks highly of Real Madrid star Isco.
Isco is one of the best attacking midfielders in the world and has established himself as a key figure in the current Madrid team.
The 25-year-old Spain international has been on the books of the Spanish giants since the summer of 2013 when he joined from Malaga for a transfer fee reported by The Guardian to be worth £23 million.
During his time at the Santiago Bernabeu so far, Isco has won La Liga and Copa del Rey once each and the Champions League thrice.
The Mirror credited Tottenham with interest in making a move for Isco in the summer of 2017.
The Spain international attacking midfielder will line up for Madrid against Spurs in the Champions League at the Santiago Bernabeu on Tuesday evening.
Ahead of the match, Spurs manager Pochettino has spoken highly of Isco, who has scored two goals and provided two assists in six La Liga starts for Madrid so far this season, according to WhoScored.
“I think that he is one of the best and he is proving it,” Marca quotes Pochettino as saying about Isco. “I have been lucky to have seen him playing for different clubs and he has always been a player with a capacity and creativity above average.
“He has reached his full potential at Real, and we will take that into account. We know all about his magic.”
