Malaga president Sheikh Abdullah Al Thani has hinted Real Madrid midfielder Isco could return to the club.

The 24-year-old joined Real Madrid in 2013 from Malaga, but has fallen out of favour since Zinedine Zidane replaced Rafael Benítez at the Bernabeu last season.

In Real Madrid's opening two games of the season, Marco Asensio was selected to start over Isco.

As a result, Isco has been subject to speculation of a move abroad, with a number of Premier League clubs reported to be interested in the player.

And Al Thani appears keen to bring the Spanish international back to the club, three years after he left Malaga in a £25.5m deal.

"My son #Isco_22," Al Thani said on Twitter. "Someday you will be in #Malagacf. 

"I'm sure about that."
