Real Madrid defender, Marcelo has advised fellow teammate, Isco, to remain at the club and fight for a place amidst reports of a move to Chelsea in the January transfer window.
Since manager Santiago Solari took over from former Los Blancos boss, Julen Lopetegui few weeks ago, Isco has not been a regular starter.
Marcelo has however urged Isco to work hard and improve himself at the Santiago Bernabeu instead of embracing the option of leaving.
Following Madrid’s 2-0 victory over AS Roma in the Champions League fixture played on Tuesday night, Marcelo was quoted saying: “I’m not good at giving advice, but it is clear that all players want to play, but it’s time to work.
“I’m not saying Isco does not work, but football is like that.
“You have to see what does not come out and try to improve.”
