Malaga staying strong on Man City target Isco - 'We don't need to sell'

Malaga executive vice-president Moayad Shatat has made it clear that the Andalusia club does not necessary need to offload star playmaker Isco.

The Spain international continues to be linked with big-money moves to Manchester City and Real Madrid this summer but if the eventuating offers are not high enough, Malaga simply won't sell according to Shatat.

"We're in negotiations with Isco. It's true that offers have come in for him, but we're always going to look for the best price for his exit," he told Marca.

"We don't need to let Isco go cheaply. If it's not enough, we're not going to sell him. We haven't received any transfer offers which include the option for him to continue with Malaga on loan for a season.

"Isco is a very important player, everyone thinks it would be great if he stayed and if the correct offer doesn't come in, we're not going to sell."
