Selling to a direct European rival would be another blow that would be hard to take for the club and it's legion of supporters, having already had to go through the trauma of losing Ronaldo to Juve and seeing James Rodriguez bang in belters for Bayern Munich.

Isco is an extremely talented individual and the club must try and find a way to coax the most out of him and make him an integral part of the squad, but with his career being where it is now, and with the player being at his physical peak at 26, he's desperate to be the main man, not just a member of the squad that's competing for every honour.

Real have sold several players to clubs and watched them succeed at the clubs they left for, seeing Arjen Robben and Wesley Sneijder to name a few down the years to have gone on to better things after leaving Madrid.
