Carlo Ancelotti has become an unexpected ally of Real Madrid when it comes to accommodating their players who are not being utilised.
James was the first one to land at Goodison Park and it seems that that signing suited all parties. The Colombian has been reunited with his best footballing form, Real Madrid has taken a weight off its shoulders and Ancelotti has found a leader for his project.
Things are going well at Everton and the player wants to ride the wave. Now, he reportedly thinks that the next step to make the team great is to take Isco Alarcón.
According to the Daily Mirror, the Liverpool club is already exploring different formulas to sign the player. Isco has moved into the background at Real Madrid in Zinedine Zidane's second spell and needs a change of direction.
The option of selling the Spanish midfielder to Everton is popular and not just because he is devaluing without playing. Real Madrid wants to sign Kylian Mbappé and, despite not having signed him in 2020, it needs a good economic injection to complete what will surely be an expensive deal.
That's where Isco come in, his exit would help to finance the transfer of Madrid's biggest target, Kylian Mbappe.
During his time at Real Madrid, Carlo Ancelotti made Isco one of his pillars. The coach has not forgotten that and believes that he can make him work in the Premier League alongside James, who was his rival for a place in the team. It remains to be seen whether Isco would be attracted by this option to play in the English competition or would wait to find a better team.
