Some Real Madrid supporters appear to be deeply concerned after recent images of Isco in training appear to show the star overweight.
Isco has become a less integral part of the team since Zinedine Zidane’s return, with the attacking midfielder managing five goal contributions from 20 starts last season (30 total appearances).
Isco has started two of his four outings so far this season, but the 28-year-old has not featured for longer than 45 minutes for Zinedine Zidane’s side so far this term.
The Spain international looked bigger than he’s ever been as he faced up Eden Hazard in a training session, with images from a shooting drill and run also showing Isco not in his usual shape.
Here’s how some Real Madrid fans reacted to the recent looks at Isco:
Isco is in the matchday squad for Los Blancos’ Champions League clash against Borussia Monchengladbach on Tuesday night.
This comes amid footage showing Isco complaining about this use under Zidane live on camera.
We hope that Isco gets the support needed from the club and fanbase that will help him get back to his usual self.
