Manchester have been told they can have the Real Madrid star

Manchester have been told they can have unsettled Real Madrid star James Rodriguez this summer.

Colombia star Rodriguez, who joined Real for £56million after the 2014 World Cup, but could be available to United for around £50m.

Reports in Spain claim Rodriguez has put his house up for sale, with his Madrid future uncertain after he failed to secure a regular starting place last season.

The 24-year-old forward was an unused substitute for the Champions League final against Atletico Madrid and wants regular football, with United able to offer him that.

Rodriguez shares the same agent, Jorge Mendes, as newly-appointed United boss Jose Mourinho and any move could now be accelerated following Colombia’s exit from the Copa America.
