He'd be more than a good option for us. He's an extremely talented footballer and one that we should be looking at. I think it's safe to say that any potential midfielder we look to buy has to have avoided playing in the Portuguese leagues! How is it that we managed to get Garcia and Fernando and Chelsea got Matic! Stay clear of Portugal from now on!
Back to Illaramendi - he's probably going to cost a fair whack as Real will try to consolidate their losses on him. It will be interesting to see what happens in light of their rumoured interest in Pogba, Reus and everyone else! I'd happily take Isco and Illaramendi off their hands!
