On July 25th, we carried a report from Sport, who claimed Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is ‘obsessed’ about making a Galactico signing this summer.
After failing in their efforts to sign Neymar or Kylian Mbappe from Paris Saint-Germain, it was claimed Cheslsea star Eden Hazard was the ‘most accessible’ target.
Spanish newspaper AS report new manager Julen Lopetegui is beginning to assemble his squad and wants Isco to be a key part of his project.
Barring any last minute changes, the decision of Real Madrid is that they will not make an approach for the Blues player because that position is very well covered.
Hazard is keen on making a switch to the Spanish capital club, but the latter are not planning on making an approach for the Belgium international, who would cost them €200m in the market.
Another reason why the leaders at Santiago Bernabeu do not want to sign Hazard is because of Marco Asensio. They don’t want to block his development at Real Madrid.It is down to Isco to prove his worth next season after the 13-time European champions decided not to make an approach for the Chelsea star.
