Chelsea fail with Isco bid

Chelsea have reportedly had an initial offer rejected by Real Madrid for star midfielder Isco.

The Spain international joined Los Blancos in the summer of 2013, and was tipped to leave the club last summer.

However, he has since then played a key role in the club's first-team and is now considered as an integral member.

Reports in Spain claims that the Premier League holders have had a £20m offer rebuffed from Los Blancos for the former Malaga star.

The Blues are expected to come up with a renewed offer for the talented playmaker.
