Whilst the Tottenham fans here in the Football Transfer Tavern were expecting a few deals to go through on Transfer Deadline Day, a move for this Champions League winner was not on the cards…
He is one of the names that Tottenham fans here in the Tavern tout as a ‘dream signing’ – but could it actually happen?
Well, according to the Mirror – there is definitely a chance. They are reporting that Tottenham have made a move for the Spanish international, with Daniel Levy keen to make a “stellar signing” before Transfer Deadline Day ends.
The move is reportedly an offer of a one-year loan move, with Levy seemingly keen to exploit Isco’s lack of game time in the Spanish capital.
The bid comes amidst a purported move from Tottenham for Wilfred Zaha, whom Crystal Palace are seemingly refusing to let go.
Our landlord never thought we would ever see Isco described as a Wilfred Zaha replacement…
Despite his lack of game time at Los Blancos, lets not take away from just how good Isco actually is…
As the above table, courtesy of whoscored.com, shows – Isco is up there with some of the best in the world.
Despite struggling to find regular game time on occasion, Isco’s stats are unbelievable. A consistent 7-8/10 average rating, with both goals and assists a key part of his game.
If he were playing for any other side in the world – he would be playing every single week.
Just in case you needed any more convincing, how about this little compilation video of Isco’s best bits…
