Published on December 24, 2019, Chelsea have been presented with an opportunity to sign Isco from Real Madrid in a £44 million deal.
The Spanish giants are looking to offload players to make room for the transfer of Tottenham's Christian Eriksen, who is set to become a free agent in the summer.
Isco, 27, has found it challenging to secure a regular spot at the Bernabeu under coach Zinedine Zidane, and has failed to score or create an assist in his ten La Liga appearances this season.
Chelsea manager Frank Lampard has stated that his club will be looking to strengthen their side in January, with a £150m transfer kitty to spend, and Isco is under consideration.
Manchester City are also reportedly interested in the three-time Champions League winner.
Chelsea are also keen on Borussia Dortmund's England striker Jadon Sancho, but not at the £100 million fee being quoted.
The Stamford Bridge club have also earmarked Crystal Palace striker Wilfried Zaha and RB Leipzig forward Timo Werner.
