Report: Manchester City to withdraw Isco interest

A Manchester City source reportedly claims that the club will not pursue Real Madrid attacking midfielder Isco.

Manchester City will not be pursuing Real Madrid midfielder Isco despite Alvaro Negredo's injury, it has been reported.

The 28-year-old Spanish international is rumoured to be out for at least two months following a metatarsal injury he picked up in pre-season.

With Isco reportedly surplus to requirements at the Bernabeu, there were suggestions in Spain that the Etihad outfit were looking to launch a new bid for the 22-year-old, despite the rumoured signing of Porto player Eliaquim Mangala.

However, The Mirror quotes a Manchester City source as saying: "Unless there is another injury to another key player, then Mangala will be the final addition to our squad in this transfer window."

Isco came through Valencia's ranks before signing for Malaga and eventually moving to Real Madrid.
