Chelsea are reportedly on the verge of launching a bid for Malaga's Isco.
According to The People, the Blues are ready to offer the cash-strapped Spanish club around £19m for the attacking midfielder.
Chelsea recently loaned Lucas Piazon to the Andalusian side in a bid to strengthen their position to purchase 20-year-old Isco.
Isco was voted as La Liga's breakthrough player last season.
