Tottenham want Isco if Christian Eriksen joins Real Madrid

Tottenham are leading the race to land Isco should Christian Eriksen leave for Real Madrid, according to El Desmarque (h/t ESPN).

The report adds that Isco is open to leaving Real in January but the move depends on Eriksen’s future.

The Dane is a free agent at the end of the campaign and spoke about taking up a new challenge before the start of the season.

Isco has made just three appearances in La Liga this season under Zinedine Zidane. Two of those have come off the bench, and his performances haven’t all been that great in recent campaigns.

The Spain international is capable of playing on either wing or as an attacking midfielder, and would be a great addition to this Spurs team.

Can Spurs make the deal happen in January?

Eriksen can leave for nothing at the end of the season, however, selling him in January would be a great decision.

The 27-year-old seems to be out of sorts at Tottenham and his performances haven’t been great either. Tottenham spent big in the summer to land Tanguy Ndombele, but we need to sign a few more players in January.

Isco could be the one who could turn our season around, and it will be interesting to see how things take place in the coming weeks.

A swap deal would be an excellent bit of business, however, Eriksen’s contract situation could be an issue.
