Real Madrid's Isco going nowhere

Real Madrid midfielder Isco will not be allowed to leave his club. Many have suspected that the Spain international will leave the Santiago Bernabeu after the arrival of Toni Kroos from Bayern Munich.

Isco has found his first team opportunities limited so far this season but Carlo Ancelotti has refuted the suggestion that the Spaniard would be heading for a new club.

"He had a great season last year and we have a lot of faith in him. He is the future of this squad," Ancelotti said of Isco.

"Isco and Illarramendi have a lot of personality and respect my decisions. They are always ready to play."
