That would be a turn up for the books!
I gather that would be (€approxes)
Cavani to replace Higuin €63m - €30m
Isco to replace Kaka €35m - €18m (based on a return to SA and they're all skint)
Bale to replace De Maria €50m - €20m
plus Ronnys new contract of 300k / week and they'll have spent a few quid. What would be the odds on that happening. It would put a few noses out of joint at the Bernabeu. Seems to go against the reports coming from Marca that we're favourites to sign Isco but hey ho its silly season.

Bale for €50m, no chance.

Levy wont get anything less than €70-€80m for him.

If Rm pull that off, i would be lost for words and quite pissed off

If they do then fair play to them, they would prove to Europe once again they are the club to fear in the market.

I still fee confident on Isco though, game time and Pellegrini will be the deciding factor hopefully.

Swansea signing Isco, that my friends would shake the world.

 

[sam-caddick]

Just a couple more days if you ask me and we will know his situation.

I definately think he will be signed up by the team of his choice come this time next week, he can then go on holiday for two weeks ready for pre-season at the start of July then.

You never know, we might find out after the game tonight....

Only when I'm tracking his flight, will I rest easy

Málaga's Isco to decide between Real Madrid and Manchester City

Isco has confirmed that Real Madrid and Manchester City have made offers to buy him and said he will decide his future after Spain's European Under 21 Championship final against Italy on Tuesday. The 21-year-old midfielder helped Málaga reach the last eight of the Champions League last season and has caught the eye at the summer tournament in Israel.

"Yes, there are offers on the table from both clubs," Isco told Spain's As sports daily. "Those are the two clubs that have shown the most interest. I hope to decide soon because I still have a contract with Málaga. I know that Manchester City and Real Madrid are both huge clubs. I hope that whatever I choose will be the best for me and for Málaga."

Isco said he had not spoken to City's new manager Manuel Pellegrini since the Chilean decided to leave Málaga and move to the Premier League at the end of last term. However, Pellegrini's presence at City might help swing his decision the way of the Manchester club.

"He is a great coach who has done some impressive work at Málaga, as he did at other clubs, and I am sure things will go well for him [in England]," he said. "It's true that I know Pellegrini already, I know how he works and he has been fundamental in my career during the two years I have been at Málaga with him.

"It's a point in favour that we worked together and that I know how he works but it's not definitive. I am going to take a holiday [after the Euro Under-21 championships], which I need, and then decide my future."

We're all hoping that this is a reverse of the Hazard situation, all hoping that he chooses MCFC

it's a tough call if he was in the RM camp as a child and family are pushing him that way

I am quietly confident that Pellegrini's mentoring and the promise (realistic) of game time, plus Isco being fully aware of our game plan makes it the best option for him right now

Let's hope so
