Tottenham want Real Madrid’s Isco to replace Wolfsburg target Son

Tottenham Hotspur are to make an ambitious attempt to sign Isco from Real Madrid, according to reports.

The Daily Mirror reports that Mauricio Pochettino is eager to lure the Spanish attacking midfielder to White Hart Lane before Wednesday's deadline.

It is understood that German club Wolfsburg have made a £24million offer for Son Heung-min and with Spurs prepared to sell the South Korean, a pathway could become open for an audacious pursuit of Isco.

Pochettino is looking to reshape his attack and sees Isco, 24, as the perfect creative player to reply behind Harry Kane and alongside Dele Alli.

He remains down the pecking order under Zinedine Zidane but it is uncertain if the Real boss has any intention of selling.
