According to AS, Everton and Konyaspor are both interested in signing free agent Spain international and former Real Madrid player Isco. In case this situation seems familiar, it’s probably because we’ve been here before.
After James Rodriguez left Real Madrid for Everton three years ago, the transfer was widely heralded as a major coup for the Premier League club. James’ high-profile entrance was met with enthusiasm by Carlo Ancelotti, but his replacement Rafael Benitez was not, and James’ £200,000-a-week contract was not renewed about a year later.
Now, on the spectrum of football managers, Sean Dyche is located closer to Benitez than Ancelotti. Rather pragmatic than idealistic. Having the gravelly-voiced ex-Burnley manager share a locker room with Isco is nearly as awkward as when Al Pacino showed up in Adam Sandler’s Jack and Jill. A team-up that was unexpected and unwelcome by all parties involved.
Despite this, rumours persist that Isco, who was let loose by Sevilla following a dismal stay in Andalusia, may join Everton. The Times claims the five-time European champion is ‘under consideration’ for the role.
To prevent losing out on another high-profile free agent as Andre Ayew did to Nottingham Forest, Everton needs to make a decision swiftly.
There will be no more transfers into or out of Turkey after February 8th. In Akcan’s opinion, all contracts will be signed on time.
At his first press conference after replacing Frank Lampard, Dyche left the door open to trading Isco, who is now 30. (Liverpool Echo).
Although he acknowledged the footballer’s obvious potential, he said Everton would conduct a thorough investigation before taking a risk on someone who seems to have been left behind in the era of heavy pressing.
These are all issues Isco must address if he wants a new beginning in the Premier League.
