Spurs, Chelsea join City in Isco pursuit?

Real Madrid ace Isco is wanted by a trio of Premier League clubs after falling out of favour at the Bernabeu, according to a report.

The Spain international has yet to start a game since Santiago Solari took over from Julen Lopetegui in October.

Isco's playing time in six matches under Solari totals just 78 minutes, and the 26-year-old was left out of Madrid's squad entirely for the trip to Roma on Tuesday evening.

Manchester City have already been tipped to make an approach for Isco when the transfer window opens for business next month, but The Mirror suggests that they now face competition from domestic rivals Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea.

Chelsea are said to be seeking a replacement for Los Blancos target Eden Hazard, potentially leading to a player-plus-cash transfer, while Pep Guardiola is rumoured to be on the lookout for another attacking midfield option.

Solari has played down suggestions that he has fallen out with Isco, who is under contract with Madrid until 2022.
