Following his breakout performance at the World Cup, Colombian international and Monaco winger James Rodriguez has drawn the attention of Manchester United.
Metro is reporting that the Red Devils are prepared to offer £65 million to bring the 22-year-old to North West England.
Rodriguez, who tallied a tournament leading six goals for Colombia before their 2-1 quarterfinal loss to Brazil on Friday, made the move to Monaco last year after the French side paid €45 million to land him from Porto.
Rodriguez is signed until 2018 and expressed Friday that a move to the EPL might not be in the cards at this stage in his career as he claimed the league is a bit too physical.
