Published on: 10 August 2016

"?AC Milan, Juventus and Arsenal target Isco is staying at Real Madrid, according to the player's father.


"?Paco Alarcon was "?quoted by Italian football website Tuttomercatoweb about speculation surrounding his son's future.


And Isco's father insisted that the midfielder would be staying at the Bernabeu next season, despite reported interest in his services.

He said: "Isco's wish is to continue his adventure at Real Madrid and he hopes to extend his contract.


"In recent weeks many rumors have surfaced, but they do not interest us. So far we have received no offer "? Not from Milan or from any other club."?

Isco has been linked with moves to Italy or England throughout the summer transfer window.


The attacking midfielder was rumoured to become Milan's first major signing after "?their recent takeover by Chinese investors.


The Serie A club face a fight to acquire Isco's signature, however, with fellow Italian outfit "?Juventus also plotting a £43m bid for the 24-year-old.

Juventus are awash with cash after selling Paul Pogba to Manchester United for a world-record £89m fee.


And the Scudetto champions see Isco as the perfect replacement for the departed Frenchman.


Meanwhile, Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is also believed to be running the rule over the Spain international.

The Gunners were linked with a move for Isco by the "?Bleacher Report as recently as Tuesday. But Wenger is said to be eyeing just one more major signing during the summer transfer window, with a superstar striker top of his wish list for the upcoming campaign.


Isco joined Real Madrid from La Liga rivals Malaga in July 2013, featuring on 53 occasions during his first two seasons with the reigning Champions League champions, but found regular game time hard to come by last term.


Isco made 43 appearances throughout 2015/16, but completed the full 90 minutes on just 12 occasions.
