true, but if your a professional footballer you have to question whether your dad has your best interests at heart and be your own man, seems to me that Isco is still daddy's little boy but to be fair the charm of Real Madrid is not one that is hard to resist, especially for a talented young Spaniard.
If they're willing to part with £10m to the lad's dad then I hope they enjoy sitting around the negotiating table with Napoli or Levy in the coming months, because they'll be taken to the cleaners.
I'm actually thinking of it more from a guaranteeing your families security angle than his dad not having his best interests at heart; We can never know whom he or his dad truly preferred, or even if this 10m pay off is real, but if it is maybe Isco thought he was doing the right thing providing for his family first. After all no matter how much potential he has now, he knows he's only a dodgy knee injury away from a good as ended career and way way less cash.

£10m? providing for your family? where's his dad live, the Royal Palace?

Lol, you know what I mean. Family security. I have no idea how well off Isco's family are, maybe there's hundreds of the fuckers. But Isco is young, hasn't had the massive footballer contracts yet.. All I'm saying is 10 million in the bank regardless of how good he becomes would seem pretty attractive if he's someone who puts family first. Maybe I'm just giving him too much benefit of the doubt, guess we'll never know.

Also saw story that Abramovich has had a word with Mourinho about bringing the youth players through the ranks with a view to FFP restrictions in the future.
Is it now obvious that we in England are the only ones taking it seriously , and since the two biggest possible flouters of FFP come from France can we expect serious investigation from Pratini.
Holding of breath not advisable !
