3 reasons why Isco should remain at Real Madrid next season

Isco's departure would leave Real Madrid short of creativity

While Isco might receive a lot of flak for his decision making and hogging the ball too much, on his day, there are not many more creative players than him on the planet.

The 2012 Golden Boy possesses a technique and close control which few can match, while his passing and creativity also rank high up there with the best.

At the moment, Isco and James Rodriguez are the only recognized attacking midfielders in the squad and with Pogba the only midfielder Los Blancos are being linked with, the club could find themselves with a dearth of attacking options through the middle.

There are strong indications that Real Madrid is not willing to let both Rodriguez and Isco leave and understandably, as a departure of both men would leave Zidane short-legged in the middle.

So far, of the two, only James Rodriguez has had concrete offers made for him as Napoli and Atletico Madrid are locked in a battle for his services, while some Premier League clubs have only made fleeting enquiries about Isco.

If Zidane is to make a choice between Isco and Rodriguez over who he wants to remain at the club as his creative midfielder, there is no doubt about who he would choose and the need for an attacking midfielder in the squad could see Isco remain at the Bernabeu for at least one more season.
