Re: Isco (Part 7 (Saturday saga part 2))
They seem to be really close now. Though, all reports that I've read seem to assume that he has agreed to go to Madrid ahead of City. The general feeling that I found reading various pieces, from both Spanish and English journalists, was that we'd be his first choice (Pellegrini/playing time).
For all we know, City could be agreeing a fee with Málaga as we speak, or perhaps already have, it was reported that they met yesterday.
That said, if I were Isco, I would join the side which made the biggest effort to sign me. That could be the side which was both willing to pay more and was first to agree a fee.
