Real Madrid prepared to sell Everton target for £18m

Real Madrid are prepared to part ways with Isco, should any club meet their £18m asking price.

The Spaniard has struggled for gametime under Zinedine Zidane this term and he has managed just 260 minutes of first-team action.

On top of this, he has not played any part in the club's Champions League campaign and he has publicly voiced his concern.

According to AS, Los Blancos' hierarchy are willing to sanction the sale of Isco and they are looking for offers of around £18m.

It is added that they could permit his departure as early as January with Everton said to be among the leading contenders to sign him.

Isco is open to a reunion with former boss Carlo Ancelotti at Goodison Park and he also has a good relationship with ex-Madrid star James Rodriguez.

Rodriguez made the switch from Los Blancos to the Toffees this summer and he has bagged three goals and four assists from his first eight games.
