The sad epilogue of Marcelo and Isco

Two of the most important players in the Real Madrid in recent years they could have lived their last season as footballers of the white club. Marcelo and Isco, come to less in recent times after going from being key players in the scheme of Zidane To be regulars on the bench, they have many numbers to leave the white club this summer. So much so that the entity chaired by Florentino Pérez has already posted the transferable poster on them and, if no offers arrive that satisfy the club's financial claims, it could give both of them the letter of freedom to leave for free.

The Malaga and the Brazilian are not the only members of the squad who are in this situation, as Mariano Y Bale (on his return to Madrid) they could also leave Madrid in this transfer market. Marcelo's case is the most delicate because he is one of the most important players in the recent history of Real Madrid while Isco it has also played a key role in the achievement of many titles.

The Brazilian arrived in Madrid in 2006 at the age of 18 as heir to Roberto Carlos and 15 years later he can leave the club through the back door (and without the deserved tribute of the fans) as the second captain of the team and as the second foreign footballer who has played the most games with the white jersey (528) only behind Benzema (559). The 12 of Madrid has closed the season with only 19 games played, equaling its worst record (2012/2013) without counting the season of its debut, in which it arrived in winter.

Marcelo has been key in achieving all four Champions recent Madrid. He scored 1-3 in the Lisbon final to ensure the Tenth, scored a penalty in the shootout Milan and signed an assist in Cardiff and another in Kiev. Since the final against Liverpool, his performance has diminished until he lost the title in favor of Mendy and with some discussion with Zidane, with whom he has not finished in the best way after maintaining a great relationship in the first stage of the French on the Madrid bench. Marcelo could leave the club in the summer with 22 titles to his name.

In case of Isco it bears certain parallels. Although the man from Malaga never achieved the same status as a legend or as an essential player, the truth is that the poor performance of Isco has caused that little by little it was leaving the plans of Zidane in favor of players like Valverde and even White.

The ex of Malaga has closed his eighth season at Madrid playing 29 games, the lowest number since he joined the club in the summer of 2013. The midfielder became a starter in 2 of the 4 European Cup finals he has played in Madrid in recent times and was one of the architects of the doublet of League Y Champions in 2017. That season Isco became one of the mainstays of the so-called Unit B that allowed those of Zidane win both titles. In total, that of honey Creek could say goodbye with 16 titles in his record with the Madrid.
