Former Real Madrid and Spain midfielder, Isco ,has expressed his intention to prioritize a move abroad in his next career step, as stated in an interview with Marca.
Isco departed from Sevilla in December, merely four months after joining the LaLiga club.
He revealed that his departure was influenced by a disagreement with then sporting director Monchi.
Additionally, Isco had a potential move to Union Berlin fall through on the final day of the January transfer window.
“I’ve played for Valencia, Malaga, Sevilla, Madrid,” Isco told Marca. I’m excited by the experience of playing in another league, learning a language growing personally outside of Spain… I’m not closing the door to anything.”
Isco also revealed that he was approached by Barcelona earlier in his Real Madrid career.
“[Ex-president Josep Maria] Bartomeu called me,” he said. “And with what Bartomeu was paying at that time… But I was happy at Madrid with my teammates… I wasn’t going to leave Madrid for all the gold in the world.”
