Santiago Solari Plays Down Isco Gesture vs. CSKA Moscow Amid Exit Rumours

Real Madrid manager Santiago Solari has played down suggestions Isco insulted supporters during the game with CSKA Moscow on Wednesday as speculation continues surrounding his long-term future at the club.

During the match at the Santiago Bernabeu, which Real Madrid lost 3-0 in embarrassing fashion, Isco was seen remonstrating with someone. According to Vamos (h/t AS), the Spain international was unhappy with supporters jeering him.

"What? What do you want?," it's alleged he said, before saying "f--king w--kers" in no clear direction.

When quizzed on the matter on Friday ahead of Saturday's match with Rayo Vallecano at the Santiago Bernabeu, Solari said he wasn't placing too much emphasis on the matter.
