Mourinho Set To Make A Marquee Signing by Sleekfloyd: 8:31pm On Jul 02, 2017 |
Manchester United could
sign Real Madrid's James
Rodriguez for a cheaper fee
if they remain patient
towards the end of the
summer transfer window.
According to The Express,
Madrid president Florentino
Perez is struggling to find
suitors for the Colombian
international and could
drop his valuation if there
are no teams willing to
match it.
Although United and Paris
Saint-Germain remain
interested in Rodriguez,
they are unwilling to meet
Madrid's reported valuation
of €75m (£65m, $85.6m)
for the 25-year-old, with
the La Liga champions
looking to recoup the
amount they paid Monaco
in 2014.

United may benefit from
the lack of suitors as they
could sign the Madrid
outcast for a cheaper fee
with Perez likely to drop the
asking price at the last
minute.
The report also claims that
Rodriguez is only
interested in a move to the
Europa League champions
as the former FC Porto star
finds himself surplus to
requirements at the
Bernabeu.
With manager Jose
Mourinho also looking to
sign Alvaro Morata, Madrid
would prefer not to sell
Rodriguez along with the
Spaniard.
However, with the two
teams set to face each
other in the European
Super Cup on 8 August, Los
Blancos could avoid playing
two of their former players
if Rodriguez is sold for a
cheaper fee late in the
transfer window.
A report from Spanish
publication Diario Gol
claims that while Perez
would be fine with
Rodriguez staying at the
club for another season if
no bids were to arrive,
Zidane is against the idea
and would prefer to offload
him.
According to Italian
publication Mediaset
Premium, Rodriguez, who
only started 13 league
games last season, has
already agreed personal
terms with United over a
proposed move to Old
Trafford.
Only a transfer fee
between the two clubs that
needs to be agreed for the
move to go ahead.
