Manchester City are reportedly keen on a £70m summer swoop for Real Madrid playmaker Isco.
Pep Guardiola's Sky Blues took the 2017-18 Premier League title at a canter, but the Spanish coach is now thought to be looking to add more depth to his squad over the summer as City aim to improve in the Champions League next term.
According to Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo, Guardiola is keen on a move for Real and Spain midfielder Isco, who has proven to be a crucially adaptive member of Zinedine Zidane's Madrid squad in recent years.
Madrid could be interested in moving Isco on should the right offer come in, while City are thought to be prepared to spend £70m to bring the 26-year-old to the Premier League.
Isco has 32 goals in 157 appearances for Madrid in a career that began at the club in 2013 following a move from fellow La Liga side Malaga.
