Barca offer Isco €20m bonus?

Barcelona have offered Real Madrid midfielder Isco a signing bonus of €20m to move to the club as a free agent in 2018, a Spanish report claims.

Rac 1 reports the former Malaga star is currently pondering the offer and has yet to confirm an answer to the Catalan club but Los Blancos are becoming increasingly concerned he will not sign a new deal at the Bernabeu and they could risk losing him on a free next year unless they sell this summer.

Isco has told Madrid he wants more first-team football and is willing to leave the club this summer in order to seek first-team opportunities, and has been linked to move abroad including to Italian champions Juventus and Tottenham Hotspur.

Marca has previously reported that Manchester City are in pole position to sign the 24-year-old after being pipped to his signature by Madrid in 2013 while Chelsea have also made their interest known.

Rac 1’s report follows up on a story in El Mundo Deportivo which stated Barca are interested in the playmaker, while Jordi Alba previously admitted he wanted him at the club.

Isco was a fan of the Blaugrana as a boy and named his dog after Lionel Messi.
