Chelsea new favourites for James?

Chelsea have moved into pole position to sign Real Madrid’s wantaway star James Rodriguez, according to reports in Spain.

AS.com claim that Antonio Conte is happy to offload both Diego Costa AND Cesc Fabregas this summer, and wanted Alvaro Morata and James as replacements.

Morata is on his way to Manchester United, but Conte is confident he can land James. With Real needing to fund a mega-money move for Kylian Mbappe, The Blues are apparently closing in on the Colombian.
