According to the Daily Mail, Manchester City are monitoring the situation of Real Madrid midfielder Isco.

Real Madrid completed the £63m signing of AS Monaco's James Rodriguez on Tuesday and the Colombian's arrival is likely to push Isco even further down the pecking order at the Santiago Bernabéu.

The 22-year-old rejected the chance to follow former manager Manuel Pellegrini to Manchester City and signed for the current European champions in a €30m deal last summer. However, Pellegrini remains interested in the Spanish midfielder and could make a move for him in the near future.

City are unlikely to approach Isco this summer due to a Uefa-imposed transfer cap and foreign quota limitations, but will monitor the player's situation.
