James Rodriguez

According to reports from Mirror Football, Real Madrid have issued Chelsea, Manchester City and Manchester United target James Rodriguez a £60million price tag for the summer transfer window.

The Colombian international earned a lucrative transfer to the Bernabeu after claiming the Golden Boot at the 2014 World Cup but hasn’t hit the heights expected since moving to the Spanish capital.

The Real Madrid hierarchy have found the 24-year-old’s performances this season particularly disappointing, finding just five goals and six assists in 19 La Liga appearances amid a continuous struggle for fitness and form.

Recent reports have suggested Los Blancos will look to sell the attacking midfielder during the coming transfer window, with Premier League trio Chelsea, Manchester and Manchester United fronting the queue for his signature.

And Mirror Football now claim the Spanish giants have calculated an asking price for the former Porto and Monaco star – £60million, which would constitute a new record transfer fee for the Premier League.

PSG have also been mooted as potential suitors, but their transfer attentions are firmly focused on prizing Barcelona star Neymar away from the Nou Camp for now. However, that could change if the Brazil talisman agrees a contract extension beyond 2018 as widely expected.
