Juventus interested in Real Madrid midfielder
Juventus Rumours: Juventus are set to upsurge their efforts to bring Real Madrid midfielder Isco to the Allianz Stadium next season. Calciomercato report that the Serie A side, who were linked with the Spaniard last month, are still keen on signing him.
The former Malaga midfielder fell out of favour last season under Santiago Scolari and was ready to leave Los Blancos. However, the return of Zinedine Zidane as the manager changed his plans and he stayed at Bernabeu.
This season, he has started in two La Liga games and a hamstring injury has sidelined him for several weeks, meaning it would be difficult for him to force his way back into the starting line up if things go well for the Los Blancos without him.
Fabio Paratici Juve’s sporting director is said to be a big fan of the Spanish international and he is valued at around €75 million.
Despite their strong interest, Juve believe that Real’s evaluation of him could prove to be a stumbling block in their pursuit for the former Valencia midfielder.

Calcio Mercato are not a highly reliable source but they do have their sources. Juventus are not in any sort of need for a player like Isco right now as they have way too many midfielders already.
