Reports in Italy say Juventus will swoop for Isco in the summer

Isco's situation at Real Madrid is more unsustainable all the time. The Malaga-born player was back on the bench in the painful defeat against Real Sociedad on Sunday. Even Vinicius Jr. and Lucas Vazquez are being picked ahead of him now.

Coach Santiago Solari has hardly used the ex-Valencia and Malaga forward. He has played just one of the last seven games as a starter. The numbers tell the story for a player that's been accused of being out of shape and that, as on Sunday, when he comes on he doesn't seem especially motivated to turn things around.

That context has led to a number of rumours. Tuttosport lead on Monday with the line that Juventus will move for the Spaniard in the summer. According to the Italian outlet, Isco is a priority to strengthen Juve's team and they want to take advantage of his situation and sign him for a reasonable price.

We will see how everything ends but Isco's exit from Madrid, save a drastic change on the bench, looks certain.
