Real Madrid midfielder Isco will not be leaving the Santiago Bernabeu this summer, manager Zinedine Zidane has confirmed.

Isco - who has a contract with the European champions for two more years - has reportedly been interesting Juventus of late.

However, Zidane says Isco is still part of his future plans in the Spanish capital, despite the player not starting Saturday's Champions League final win over Atletico Madrid.

"Isco is a Real Madrid player and he is not leaving," Zidane said.

"We have just finished the season and haven't had time to talk about the market or any players who may be of interest to Juventus."
