Clubs will be competing to sign Isco ahead of the transfer window given his soon-to-be Bosman status and it is believed that West Ham are one of them.
The 29-year-old is also said to be attracting interest from the likes of FC Barcelona, Milan, Juventus, Borussia Dortmund, Fiorentina and alleged overwhelming favourites Sevilla.
The Latest: West Ham in mix…
Indeed, Estadio Deportivo claim that while ‘everything indicates’ he will join Sevilla, they also say ‘some surprises should never be ruled out’ – namedropping West Ham as suitors.
The playmaker, despite his heavy links to Sevilla, has also been pictured in Florence recently with La Viola one of the interested parties.
The Verdict: Fresh hope?
This report hints at some hope for West Ham if they do indeed wish to sign Isco on a free deal, but should manager David Moyes and co make his signing a priority?
Once valued at around £100m by the Galacticos, any club signing the attacker for free could just highlight his real decline in recent seasons.
His market value is now estimated by Transfermarkt at around £6.75m, a real drop off from his once-marquee price tag.
Isco’s best season at the Bernabeu, where he notched ten goals and eight assists in La Liga over 2016/2017, was a long time ago and it would arguably come as a gamble to see if he could resurrect his career in east London.
