Isco to leave Real Madrid?

According to Diario Gol, Gerard Pique has told Lionel Messi that Pep Guardiola has asked Manchester City owners to make a move for Isco in the summer. Guardiola sees Isco as a midfielder in the mould of Andres Iniesta and is willing to pay €100 million for his signature.

Meanwhile, Don Balon believe that Manchester United and Manchester City are going to lock horns to sign the coveted Real Madrid star. United are willing to put €150 million on the table for Isco, but City believe that he would like to play for Guardiola instead.

Finally, Manchester City and Manchester United will battle each other for the signature of Leicester City’s Harry Maguire, who is rated at £50 million, say Daily Star.
