West Ham have been named among the clubs vying for the signature of Real Madrid attacking midfielder Isco.
The 29-year-old is out of contract at the end of this season and a host of sides across Europe are keen on signing the Spaniard.
Alongside interest from the Hammers, Barcelona, Fiorentina, AC Milan, Juventus, Borussia Dortmund and Sevilla are all believed to be in the mix.
That’s according to a report from Estadio Deportivo, which revisits previously cited admiration from east London.

The report claims that Sevilla lead the way for the 38-cap ace but no club should be ‘ruled out’ in the pursuit.
So far this season Isco – who was hailed as ‘incredible’ by Andres Iniesta – has scored twice in 14 fleeting outings across all competitions for Los Blancos.

Still valued at £6.75million (Transfermarkt), singing the creative midfield maestro for free this summer would be a worthwhile acquisition.
However, David Moyes is relatively well-stocked in the attacking midfield deportment with Manuel Lanzini, Said Benrahma, Pablo Fornals and Nikola Vlasic all in situ.
Therefore, despite boasting a bulging trophy cabinet containing 18 major honours, adding Isco to the ranks on likely high wages mightn’t be the smartest piece of business.
