Arsene Wenger has put Real Madrid’s James Rodriguez on his wanted list.
The Arsenal boss is weighing up a bid for the play-maker, valued at £50million, writes Mirror Football’s Steve Stammers.
The Colombian is keen to leave the Bernabeu in search of regular first-team football ahead of next year’s World Cup in Russia.
Rodriguez, who has also been linked with Liverpool and Manchester United, didn’t even make the subs’ bench for Real’s Champions League final win over Juventus in Cardiff last weekend.
