Spanish outlet Super Deporte claim that Newcastle and Juventus are the two clubs ‘most interested’ in signing Real Madrid ace Isco.

Isco, 29, is out of contract at Madrid next summer and is struggling to get any kind of regular game time. Carlo Ancelotti has used him six times.

Only two of those six games this season have come from the start. He has scored once, but is yet to play a single minute in the Champions League.

An exit from Madrid looks inevitable, with Isco just eight games shy of clocking up a huge 350 in all competitions for the club he joined in 2013.

The report from Spanish outlet SD says that Madrid are likely to cash in on Isco in the summer. They say Newcastle and Juve are ‘most interested’.

The Mirror reported in the summer that interested parties would have to spend a measly £6million to get Isco. That might be less in January.

Newcastle eye Isco: Madrid star could be the face of club’s new era

The chances of Isco leaving Madrid are almost certain. He wants to join a club where he will get regular football – the Champions League not an issue.

Juventus propose an option similar to the one he has at Madrid. He will play, but he will not be first choice. Ar Newcastle, he is the club’s best.

Yes, he will be without European football. But he will be the heartbeat of a project that by the time he is 32 – have a real chance of European football.

The report states Isco is keen on a move to Tyneside. Newcastle must take advantage and convince the four-time Champions League winner.
