Any dreams the Stamford Bridge support had of seeing the club sign the Real Madrid star, Isco, appear to be fading very fast or indeed could be classified as being already over.
Chelsea’s interest in the midfielder, covered by us recently Click Here, appeared to indicate that a deal could be struck, especially with Real Madrid keen to sell the 26-year-old.
But, despite Chelsea, according to our source, the Sun, agreeing a £75 million deal with Real Madrid and agreeing to pay Isco a salary in the region of £250,000 a week, the deal has floundered.
Our referenced source is inferring that interest, in the player, from Paris Saint-Germain, resulted in a higher salary being requested, which would have pushed the total cost of the deal through the £100 million mark.
Such a request also saw Chelsea’s belief that the player wanted to play for the club cast into doubt.
It remains if a deal can be rescued or whether Isco decides to move to Paris Saint-Germain, but on the evidence of the above I wouldn’t get your hopes up.
