Manuel Pellegrini Arrival Could Help Manchester City Sign £27m Rated Isco The Malaga playmaker could follow his current coach to the Etihad Manchester City’s pursuit of Manuel Pellegrini is expected to help the club’s move to sign his 21-year-old Malaga playmaker, Isco, with whom the Chilean also shares an agent. Reports in Spain suggested that Isco, who is valued at £27m, has been offered a four-year deal by City, but the player and his father, Paco Alarcon, are considering if a further year in Spain would be better. City sporting director Txiki Begiristain’s talks with Pellegrini’s agent, Jesus Martinez, have allowed him to discuss bringing Isco, a Spain international, to the Etihad.  Player Profile - Full Name: Francisco Román Alarcón Suárez
- DOB: 210492 - Age: 21
- Position: Attacking midfield
- Nationality: Spain

Just got back from the Channel Islands (Gurnsey, Sark AND Jersey) to find that Mancini had gone, Pellegrini was RUMOURED to be coming and this guy Isco, who I've never heard of, will be coming. What next?  ? Last time I was away at any crucial time of a season, I discovered ADUG had bought us when I walked into a sports bar in Rhodes - I'll have to go away more often - it gets exciting! |

Manchester City have been alerted that former transfer target Isco is already unsettled at Real Madrid. The Blues were outbid by the Spanish giants during the summer, who finally landed the midfielder from Malaga for £30 million. City boss Manuel Pellegrini was gutted about missing out on a player who he had given a chance to during his time at the club. But the Chilean has since received word from Spain that the 21-year-old is already fed-up with life at the Bernabeu, and could now be regretting his decision. Isco started the season in impressive form and felt a move to Real would also enhance his claims to go to next summer's World Cup finals with Spain. But Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti has altered the formation of his forward line in recent games to accommodate Gareth Bale - leaving Isco on the sidelines. City refused to go higher than £21m for the 21-year-old but sources have indicated they would still be interested if both Madrid and the player are now ready to go their separate ways. |

I feel that both Milner and Garcia have reached the end of their time at City (and Dzeko) sso another midfielder is very necessary

Garcia is the WORST player I've ever seen in this modern-era Manchester City!
Unbelievably slow, error prone, doesn't read the game well enough to play CB, shocking at DM, average in CM!
I can't wait to see the back of him to be honest! ;D

On that note - not a big fan of James Milner - people say he runs his heart out but .......... So would I even more so playing for City and I'd even do it for FREE but doesn't mean I should play!  |

Yeah, getting a good, fast, goal scoring midfielder in place of Milner could be a great move.
