在歐洲超級杯中,伊斯科為皇家馬德里打進了制勝球,這也終結了曼聯的冠軍夢想。如今的伊斯科,已經是皇家馬德里中場的靈魂之一了。但少有人知的是,伊斯科在2013年夏天曾一度接近於加盟曼聯。ESPN揭秘了往事,曼聯放棄伊斯科的原因,實在是令人啞然失笑。
伊斯科出道於瓦倫西亞,成名於馬拉加,他曾把馬拉加帶進過歐冠八強,他也曾經贏得過歐洲金童獎。2013年上半年,伊斯科成了曼聯的追求目標,當時是弗格森執教曼聯的最後階段。
曼聯方面認可伊斯科的技術能力,但對他的身體條件並不滿意。「伊斯科很出色,但速度不夠快。而且相對身高而言,他的頭太大了。」曼聯因這種近乎離譜的原因放棄了伊斯科。四年後的昨天,伊斯科就完成了對曼聯的關鍵一擊。
被曼聯放棄的伊斯科,最終在齊達內的勸說下加盟皇家馬德里。在效力皇家馬德里的四年間,伊斯科贏得了1個西甲冠軍、1個國王杯冠軍、3個歐冠冠軍、3個歐超杯冠軍和2個世俱杯冠軍。在昨天的歐超杯中,伊斯科甚至當選了全場MVP。在上賽季衝刺期,伊斯科將貝爾擠出了首發陣容。頭太大?也許這隻意味著伊斯科的足球智商足夠高!
Manchester United decided not to pursue the transfer of a young Isco over concerns about his curiously-proportioned anatomy.
Isco slipped through United's net
According to ESPN, United scouted the playmaker several times towards the end of Sir Alex Ferguson's tenure at the club. At the time, Isco was a 21-year-old prospect at Málaga.
Manchester United's scouting report on Isco concluded that he did not merit further pursuit: "He's good, but not quite quick enough and his head is too big for his body".
Key role as Madrid beat Mourinho's United
Isco has flourished in 2017. Zinedine Zidane's staunch rotation policy allowed him to shine for Real Madrid as the club marched to a LaLiga and Champions League double.
The French coach was full of praise for Isco, after the Spaniard scored the second goal in Madrid's victory in the UEFA Super Cup, against Manchester United, no less.
"He just keeps getting better," Zidane enthused. Real Madrid are expected to reward the 25-year-old for his performances with a new contract in the near future.
