# Everton: Fans buzz as Isco asks to leave Real Madrid

**Lots of Everton fans have been left buzzing as [AS](https://en.as.com/en/2020/11/20/football/1605907835_985434.html) have reported that transfer target Isco has asked to leave Real Madrid.**

As per the news outlet, the Spain international has apparently made his intentions clear that he wants to leave Zinedine Zidane’s team in the January transfer window, and that he will be allowed to if the offer is right.

Indeed, Isco has been heavily [linked](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/everton-fc-transfer-rumours/everton-isco-talks-delayed-after-arsenal-interest-in-real-madrid-star/) with a reunion with his old boss in Carlo Ancelotti at Goodison Park, although the Italian has recently [played down](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/everton-fc-transfer-rumours/everton-fans-react-to-carlo-ancelottis-comments-on-isco/) these rumours.

Nonetheless, the 28-year old would certainly be an upgrade on Gylfi Sigurdsson in the central attacking midfield position for the Toffees, given that he has averaged more passes at a higher success rate than the Iceland international in their respective domestic leagues so far in the 2020.21 term ([Whoscored](https://www.whoscored.com/PlayerComparison)).
