Reports claim the Colombian playmaker is a summer target for Antonio Conte, who is keen to make a number of big-name signings ahead of Chelsea’s expected return to the Champions League.

Rodriguez was strongly linked with a Stamford Bridge switch in January but Real Madrid were reluctant to sell due to their global transfer ban.

Spanish newspaper Marca claims star man Ronaldo will kick up a fuss to keep Rodriguez at the Real Madrid.

The two Real Madrid stars are good friends and Ronaldo is keen to keep Rodriguez at Real Madrid.
