Isco offered Jose Mourinho as Zaniolo’s replacement. Isco, a former Real Madrid midfielder, has been proposed to Jose Mourinho‘s AS Roma as Nicolo Zaniolo’s replacement. Before the Turkish transfer window ends on Wednesday, the latter is certain to join Galatasaray (February 8).
The Italian midfielder is open to a transfer to Nef Stadyumu, according to Calciomercato (via Football Italia). Roma may now sign a replacement because Isco’s middlemen have volunteered his services to the Serie A team. The former Real Madrid player’s deal with Sevilla was canceled after only four months, making him a free agent. Union Berlin of the Bundesliga was about to sign him when the negotiations broke down over a pay issue.
At Sevilla, Isco was making €1 million a season, but several add-ons would raise that to €5 million. Regardless of the club that signs him, he wants the same contract. The 30-year-old played 353 times for Los Blancos in different leagues, tallying 53 goals and 57 assists. Having participated in and won the UEFA Champions League five times, he boasts a wealth of expertise.
Isco was never given the chance to assist Mourinho at the Santiago Bernabeu. In 2013, a few months after the Portuguese coach had been fired by the Galacticos, he moved to Madrid. Following their UEFA Champions League triumph from the previous campaign, Carlo Ancelotti’s team has left for the FIFA Club World Cup in Morocco. On Wednesday, they play Al Ahly in the semifinals (February 8). If Los Blancos defeat the Egyptian team, they’ll play Flamengo or Al Hilal three days later in the championship game.
The team for Real Madrid’s campaign in Morocco has been announced, and they will not have Courtois or Benzema available for the competition. Before the team’s shocking 1-0 loss to Mallorca on Sunday, the former injured his adductor muscle while warming up (February 5). The latter, meanwhile, skipped the trip to Palma and won’t be ready for the FIFA Club World Cup. Due to his fitness difficulties, Brazilian defender Eder Militao also left the team.
As they attempt to win the competition for a sixth time, Ancelotti is anticipated to rotate his team. The burden is on Los Blancos to respond after their shocking loss to Mallorca.
