Revealed: Manchester United ready to sign attacking star for club record £60million

James Rodriguez

Colombian journalist Jose Luis Sanchez has revealed that Manchester United will be able to secure the services of Real Madrid star James Rodriguez for £60million, as reported by the Daily Star

Manchester United are clearly struggling at the moment and one of the main reasons behind their poor form has been their lack of cutting edge in the final third.

Therefore, it is widely expected that United manager Louis van Gaal will look to make a swoop for a couple of new star attacking players during the January transfer window and a host of names have already started being linked with a move to Old Trafford.

Rodriguez set for United move?

Real Madrid star James Rodriguez has been mentioned as one of the targets for United and the Premier League giants are optimistic of signing the 24-year old due to the fact that he is reportedly unhappy with Rafael Benitez’s tactics and training methods at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Now to fuel speculation that Rodriguez could well be on his way to Manchester, reputed Colombian journalist Jose Luis Sanchez has revealed that United will be able to land the services of Rodriguez in January for a fee close to £60million.
