Arsenal linked with Real Madrid star yet again

Arsenal have been linked with Spain star Isco yet again. The attacking midfielder has grown frustrated with his lack of playing time at Real Madrid and could seek a move to north London in order amend that.

With players like Mesut Özil, Alexis Sanchez, and Aaron Ramsey playing in crucial attacking midfield roles, it would be hard to see how Isco would fit in the Arsenal squad, but he would add a lot of quality to the team.

At 23-years-old, Isco’s prime is ahead of him and his value of £29m could skyrocket within a few years. He has proven time and time again to be a quality player for both club and country, so would prove an exciting transfer for both the team and its supporters.

The potential problem with this rumoured transfer is that Arsenal’s money might be better spent on a defensive midfielder to provide better competition and cover for the currently injured Francis Coquelin, whose current back-up is Mathieu Flamini and is proving to be heading toward the latter stages of his career.

Still, Isco would provide a spark to the team and has the potential to bring flair and skill to the midfield.

matchday.
