Real Madrid are not buying Hazard, Isco is set to have the key role
The Chelsea star won’t be arriving at the Bernabeu because of the unexpected change of plans for his transfer that has surfaced. Right now Julen Lopetegui is shaping Real Madrid’s squad and one thing is for sure, Isco is the one player in particular that has been seen as the next big project of the team. The new head coach’s complete faith goes to this Andalusian that has led Madrid to rule out moving for the Belgium star Eden Hazard. Real Madrid has huge admiration and respect for Hazard, but they feel like it’s Isco time. The club says that signing Hazard definitely requires a huge financial outlay and this is their decision. Also, they have well covered the same position with a quality player like Isco. Real Madrid has no intention of buying just for buying’s sake. The time has come to be handed a more crucial role to Isco, which is the player that Lopetegui trusts even in the midfielder’s toughest moments on Bernabeu. He admitted that in the national team he has the coach’s confidence, which is yet to be earned at Madrid starting this season. Chelsea, what’s more, would not be expected to let Hazard with no persuasion. Real was aware that they would have to pay around 200m Euros, given the figures being paid in today’s market. It’s unlikely for the Blues to sell after August 9, when the Premier League transfer closes. So they wouldn’t have long to get this deal done.
