Luis de la Fuente has made a pre-list with more than 50 players in which two prominent names appear who have given a lot of talk in recent games: the Real Madrid player Nacho and the Betic player Isco. The coach will have a list of 26 players, which opens the range of possibilities and allows names to be considered that have not appeared regularly on the list, such as these two players, who had not been in the coach’s previous calls. Haro.
Nacho, at 34 years old, is being an important player for Real Madrid and everything indicates that he will start in the Wembley final, as he was in Manchester and Munich. The white captain is having more minutes than in previous seasons, due to the injuries of Alaba and Militão, and after an irregular first part of the season he has improved his performance, once again being a guarantee center back for Ancelotti. The youth player, who has played for Real Madrid for 13 seasons, has announced to the club that his idea is to leave at the end of the season and everything indicates that he will go to the American MLS, where he wants to start a new stage with his family. . He has offers in Europe from Italian teams, such as Inter, from German teams, such as Xabi Alonso’s Bayer Leverkusen, and there is interest from several Premier League teams. Nacho has 24 caps for Spain, with which he played in the World Cup in Russia and became champion in the last Nations League with De la Fuente as coach.
Isco’s case is more unique because the man from Malaga has not been part of a coach’s plans for years. His last game with the national team was a qualifying match for Euro 2020 that he played on June 10, 2019 against Sweden. Before that he had already worn the Spain shirt 38 times, scoring 12 goals. The man from Malaga has been reborn after leaving Sevilla for Betis, where Manuel Pellegrini has given him minutes and stripes. Isco is, without a doubt, the best Verdiblanco player this season and has received the Best Player of the Match (MVP) trophy in 19 of the 28 League games in which he has participated. This has led him to be named the best player in the League in the month of April. The 31-year-old from Malaga seems to have regained his passion for football and is enjoying a Betis team that he wants to keep in Europe, fighting with Real Sociedad for a place in the Europa League.
Isco had not entered Luis de la Fuente’s plans until now, but his great performance has ended up knocking down the door and the coach has surrendered to the evidence of his great moment of form, although he could be frustrated by an injury he suffered yesterday against Las Palmas. The Betic player would fit perfectly in the midfield position of De la Fuente’s 4-2-3-1, behind the striker. His ability to generate play, filter last passes and even shoot, make him a more than reliable alternative to Dani Olmo who has not finished the season at his peak. The 9 goals and 7 assists of the green and white player improve the 5 goals and 5 assists of the Leipzig player.
