Chelsea plan club-record offer for Real Madrid star

Chelsea are reportedly prepared to make a club-record approach for Real Madrid midfielder Isco at the end of the current campaign.

The Spain international only inked a long-term deal with Los Blancos earlier in the season, but his future has been put into question amid Zinedine Zidane's reluctance to play him regularly from the starting lineup.

According to The Mail, the Blues are looking into a move for the former Malaga man, who is expected to cost in upwards of £75m during the summer transfer window.

The Blues have endured an average season by their standards in the Premier League, and their failure to finish in the top-four position is likely to encourage another spending spree.

However, if Chelsea are to move for Isco, Eden Hazard's future may come into focus with Real Madrid having earmarked the Belgian as a possible big-money signing for the summer.

Chelsea are currently five points behind the Champions League positions, but they can reduce the gap to two points with a victory over Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.
