Chelsea set to seal Arsenal target swoop

Chelsea are working on a deal to bring Real Madrid playmaker Isco to Stamford Bridge. According to Mundo Deportivo, the marquee signing for Chelsea could be announced as early as January. Isco, who has struggled to find his best form and only has two goals and one assist in 13 appearances, is thought to be open to the idea of a fresh challenge and playing under Maurizio Sarri. It’s reported Real are willing to sell if their €70m asking price is met and the deal will progress once coach Santiago Solari has given it the green light.
