In yesterday's Spanish "La Liga" championship match, 24-year-old Real Madrid midfielder Isco shared good news with the "white" fans - he is determined to sign a new contract and wear the royal club's jersey for many more years.
The Spanish national team midfielder was the hero of the difficult Real victory in yesterday's match against "Sporting Gijon". Playing as the second team, the "white" team beat the hosts 3-2. Isco scored the first goal for the Real team and also scored a great winning goal in the 90th minute.
Lately, there have been rumors in the media that Isco is not satisfied with playing time at Real Madrid and wants to leave in the summer, as his contract expires in 2018. However, after the match, the Spaniard denied these rumors and said he wants to stay in Madrid.
"I have always said that I want to play at Real for as long as possible," Isco stated. "It's no surprise that I want more playing time. Everyone wants the same."
"When I get a chance to play, I always try to give my best. I can only repeat that I want to stay in Madrid for a long time. Every player believes they can get more playing time. Zidane cares about each player, and the team is currently in exceptional form.
"The media doesn't understand my words, they often change them and make the situation more dramatic. But I can confirm that I will do everything to stay in Madrid. My goal now is to do my job well and get the opportunity to play for the best team in the world.
Both me and the club plan to make the right decision in the near future (sign a new contract - ed.note)," concluded the skillful player with exceptional technique.
Isco played 26 matches in the "La Liga" championship this season, scoring nine goals and making five assists.
