Manchester City won't pursue Real Madrid star Isco despite Alvaro Negredo's broken foot
Jul 26, 2014 22:30 By Simon Mullock


Manuel Pellegrini is an admirer of the Spanish star, but the City boss will not be adding to his squad once the arrival of Eliaquim Mangala is confirmed

Sunday Mirror Sport understands that City’s summer recruitment drive will stop once the protracted £32million arrival of Eliaquim Mangala from Porto has been completed .

Negredo will be sidelined for at least two months after suffering the injury during City’s friendly victory at Hearts nine days ago.

And with both Sergio Aguero and Stevan Jovetic plagued by fitness problems last season, there were suggestions in Spain that City might launch another move for Isco.

The champions lost out to Real Madrid in the £25m race to sign the 22-year-old last summer when Manuel Pellegrini tried to bring the attacking midfielder with him from Malaga.

But Isco is surplus to requirements at the Bernabeu following Madrid’s capture of Colombian World Cup star James Rodriguez from Monaco.

Pellegrini is still an admirer of the player he nurtured as a teenager on the Costa del Sol but, after adding Mangala to previous summer signings Fernando, Willy Caballero and Bacary Sagna, City will close the chequebook.

A City source said: “Unless there is another injury to another key player, then Mangala will be the final addition to our squad in this transfer window.”

The Etihad club will still be open for business, however. Jack Rodwell is attracting interest from several Premier League clubs, but City want a straight cash deal worth £10m for the midfielder rather than a loan arrangement.

There have been no takers either for £8m-rated Micah Richards, but Matija Nastasic is attracting interest from Arsenal, Inter Milan and Roma and Javi Garcia has been targeted by Napoli.

PSV Eindhoven are also desperate to land teenage defender Karim Rekik on a permanent deal after the Dutchman impressed on a year-long loan last season. Rekik, 19, has been given a chance to impress Pellegrini on City’s pre-season tour of the United States after breaking into Holland’s World Cup squad.

If a buyer can be found for Nastasic, Rekik will get the regular place in the City squad he craves. But Eindhoven boss Phillip Cocu believes he could develop into one of the world’s best defenders and is ready to pounce.

Funny that after the kansas game pellers said he's still after 3 or 4 players.


From reading the quotes of his A.C Milan pre-match interview, I got the feeling that Pellegrini meant we've "already" signed 3 or 4 important players....which would be Sagna, Willy, Fernando and......Mangala...I think we're done unless we have anymore injuries .....we might see one or two leaving but business is done! From all the reports, it looks like Isco wants to stay and fight for his position at RM.....I think he would have come last season, if he wanted City.....we need to move on and put our time into helping Lopes (Isco lite!;) reach his full talent level...think he could be great next season....

Isco is only thinking about Real Madrid. He has told his father [agent] to ignore all offers. [Marca] pic.twitter.com/LTmqcvRqSe

Sorry havent seen the press conference from the kansas game, did manuel really say he still wants 3 or 4 more???


Hi mate......Just sent a comment to this thread....Pellegrini mentioned during AC Milan presser that we've already signed 3 or 4 players and gave the impression that business done....I think once Mangala is confirmed that's it, apart from one or two leaving...
 
Quotes from Pellegrini presser:


'Every year in the Premier League you have five or six teams who are very strong. Maybe this year Chelsea at the moment, and Arsenal and Manchester United are bringing new players in.


'But I think that we will continue to be a very strong squad. We have also been bringing in three or four important players to improve our squad. And we will see during the year which is the better team.


'But I continue thinking we have a very strong squad and we will try to win the title again.'


City have signed goalkeeper Willy Caballero, defender Bacary Sagna and midfielder Fernando, and hope to buy FC Porto centre-back Eliaquim Mangala for £32million.


It means that some players will be leaving but Pellegrini insists that Stevan Jovetic will not be one of them.


He added: 'Stevan is working well with us. He is a very important player for our team. Maybe there are a lot of rumours about his future but Stevan will stay with us here.'

How exactly does an article in the Daily Star prove you aren't a WUM? You have a history of spreading bullshit rumours on here pretending to be ITK, just like that tabloid.

Your the same guy that laughed at me when I said adebayor was going to Real Madrid, you like to forget about that one I know. You use the fact we didn't sign ibrahimovic against me when in fact we tried to sign him twice under Mancini but it didn't happen so it was bullshit. Anyway I've never claimed to be itk of whatever stupid phrase that infers. I know a couple if agents one being a lifelong friend so I get to hear about approaches and enquiries nothing more nothing less. They don't all come off, so what who cares, I post on here very rarely these days because of people like you. I like Isco as a played so when I heard in May a loan may be in the cards I posted the info. If you don't believe me don't react just ignore it.

well that should avoid any confusion.
 
Guaranteed that this forum will have Isco parody threads for the next 50+ years. It will become the Transfer Forum's equivalent of the Clarkie. It just won't go away.
 
Just a guess but I wouldn't be suprised if he ended up at Everton.

Last season on the last day of the transfer window Martinez pulled off Barry, Delafalou and Lukaku and like many on here everything that Martinez does impresses and suprises me.

Madrid don't want him.
Madrid wouldn't let Barca have him
PSG don't need him
Bayern don't need him.
City most likely can't afford or find a place for him.
Arsenal have loads like him.
Spurs have one like him (Erickson although not as good)
Jose wouldn't piss on him
United have almost as many like him as Arsenal
