Tottenham Hotspur to make move for Isco?

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly planning to swoop for Real Madrid attacker Isco before the transfer window closes on Wednesday.

The 24-year-old, who moved to the Bernabeu from Malaga for £25m three years ago, was heavily pursued by Manchester City last season but Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane put a halt to the potential transfer.

Now Los Blancos are keen to trim down their squad and, according to The Mirror, it has come down to "a straight choice" between Isco and his £60m-rated teammate James Rodriguez.

Isco is the more likely of the pair to depart, with Spurs thought to be keen to take him on loan for the rest of the season with a view to a permanent signing next summer.

Chelsea have also been credited with an interest in the Spaniard, who has 15 goals in 98 league appearances for Madrid to date.
