Isco thrilled to be Real Madrid "world champion"

Real Madrid midfielder Isco is looking forward to their clash with AC Milan today.

The two teams meet in Dubai.

Isco remarked: "We have a very difficult start to 2015, but we hope to carry our 2014 form and the run of consecutive victories with us. The team is prepared and we are confident enough to face a complicated month of January."

"We've just arrived to Dubai. I didn't know much about the city but we were given a great reception. There is no point talking about Milan. We are aware of their history and the titles they have won. It will be a great game, in a beautiful city and we expect to enjoy it as much as possible."

"Wearing the world champions jersey for the first time is extremely exciting because of what it represents. It is a great prize, it was hard work achieving it and now we get to enjoy it."
