Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal and Chelsea are all reportedly keen on signing the Real Madrid star.
According to a report from the Sun, Tottenham, Chelsea and Arsenal are set to battle it out in the race to sign Real Madrid star Isco.
The Spaniard is widely considered to be one of the best attacking play-makers in world football, and he would be a real coup for whichever club wins the race to sign him, but if he leaves the Bernabeu, which team should he choose to join?
Tottenham:
Spurs have been crying out for another world-class creative player to help take the burden from Christian Eriksen’s shoulders, and Isco would fit the bill perfectly.
The 26-year-old would be the ideal addition to Mauricio Pochettino’s side, although he wouldn’t be guaranteed first-team football, unless Eriksen is sold on.
Tottenham are widely considered to be genuine challengers for honours on all fronts, but would Isco be prepared to move to a team that hasn’t won a trophy since 2008?
Chelsea:
Stamford Bridge seems to be the ideal destination for Isco.
The Blues are really lacking strength in depth in the attacking midfield department, with more competition required for the likes of Eden Hazard, Pedro and Willian.
Chelsea are perennial title contenders, and that might just tempt the Spain international into a switch to west London.
Arsenal:
Much will depend on whether Aaron Ramsey, Mesut Ozil and Henrikh Mkhitaryan all remain at the Emirates beyond the summer.
Whilst Isco can play out wide, he is mot dangerous when operating in the number 10 role.
If he is prepared to play out wide, the Emirates might just be the ideal destination for him.
In conclusion, it seems as though the best choice for Isco could be Chelsea. The west London outfit are the most likely team to win major honours out of the three clubs mentioned, and with Pedro and Willian ageing, he would be the ideal addition to Maurizio Sarri’s side.
