Isco sticks with Real Madrid

Isco is staying with Real Madrid.

The midfielder had offers from Tottenham and Malaga on Wednesday.

Excited Málaga fans had even launched a Twitter hashtag #IscoBack on Tuesday in anticipation that their former player might return.

However, in the end Isco will remain at Real Madrid this season, where he'll have to fight for minutes with James, as well as Luka Modric, Casemiro and Toni Kroos: the unmovable midfield three. Isco theoretically may not be even a first choice replacement when the whole squad is fit, with Marco Asensio at the moment being Zinedine Zidane's preferred option.
