Isco is expected to move to Union Berlin.
Transfer market expert Fabricio Romano said on his social media on the 31st (Korean time), “Union Berlin will sign Isco for free. The contract is currently signed and he will undergo a medical test on the transfer market deadline day.” He added the unique phrase ‘Here We Go’ used when a transfer is imminent.
Isco raised his share price while playing for Malaga in the past. Having contributed greatly to Malaga reaching the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League (UCL), he moved to Real Madrid in 2013. In the early days of his joining, he performed well, playing more than 30 matches in Spanish La Liga every season. 안전놀이터
However, from the 2018-19 season, his position has narrowed. With the addition of newcomers such as Federico Valverde to his existing rivals such as Luka Modric and Toni Kroos, his opportunities to play have decreased. Last season, he made 14 league appearances, but started only three times. In the end, Isco chose to go to Sevilla as a free agent (FA) ahead of this season.
The manager who was leading Sevilla was coach Julen Lopetegui, who had a priestly relationship at Real Madrid. Coach Lopetegui made full use of him. During the first half of this season, during the 14 league games under Lopetegui’s managerial system, Isco appeared in 12 games and posted two assists. It was different from what he had shown in the past few years.
But the situation changed rapidly. Sevilla had fallen to 18th in the league as of the first half of this season. In a chaotic atmosphere, coach Lopetegui left, and Isco, who naturally wanted him, was shaken. Isco, who was also surrounded by rumors of a feud with Sevilla’s general manager Monchi, ended his association with Sevilla.
Isco is now free to negotiate with any team he wants. After finishing the contract with Sevilla, the news was conveyed that he could head to Wolverhampton along with coach Lopetegi. Spain’Todo Pichahes’ said, “Wolverhampton wants Isco. Isco has been with coach Lopetegui in Real and Sevilla.”
However, in reality, the trip to Wolverhampton did not happen. Instead, Wolverhampton recruited Joao Gomes and Mario Lemina in positions where Isco could play. In the end, Isco left Spain for the first time after going through Valencia, Malaga, Real Madrid and Sevilla to take on a new challenge abroad.
