AC Milan have asked to sign Isco on a free transfer from Real Madrid but the Spanish side were not willing to bite, according to a report.
In Spain, Sport (via MilanLive) are reporting that Milan asked Isco free of charge, but a negative response came from Real Madrid as Los Blancos have no intention of letting him go a year from the end of his contract without receiving a transfer fee.
For the player’s part, he has the will to play and he would welcome the idea of a move to Milan to work with head coach Stefano Pioli, but as mentioned the Rossoneri only want him on a free transfer and pressed for this solution.
Isco has no place in Real Madrid’s plans because they believe he is more focused on life away from football, but Milan could be the right place to relaunch as they need an attacking midfielder with vision of the game. Now, we wait and see what the next move is.
