James Rodriguez eyes move away from Real Madrid

James Rodriguez has been an outcast at Real Madrid this season.

One doesn't know the reason but he somehow is not able to make into Zinedine Zidane's line-up.

James has only made six appearances this season and majority of them came from the bench, despite some of the recent injuries to the likes of Luka Modric, Toni Kroos and Casemiro.

One of the brightest talent in the footballing world, Real Madrid are lucky to have a player of his quality but he is only wasted on the bench, struggling to get some playing time.

According to ​Spanish news outlet ​Marca, being overlooked has had a detrimental effect on the player's relationship with coach Zidane, who appears to have exiled the player.

The pair's toxic affair came under even more scrutiny following the club's Champions League 2-1 victory over Sporting CP. While Rodriguez was an unused substitute for the tie, his attitude and general negative presence on the bench was picked up on by the television cameras.

This has led to strong rumours suggesting that Rodriguez will demand to leave the Bernabeu either in the winter or summer transfer window, with Manchester United said to be keen to take on the Colombia international to boost their attacking options.

However, the club's hierarchy, including president Florentino Perez, are said to be keen to keep the player in Madrid, and are eager for Zidane to find a place for him in their starting XI.

Los Blancos injury woes have risen as Gareth Bale recently picked up an ankle injury in Lisbon and if possible Zinedine Zidane may now hand James some playing time.
