James Rodriguez Linked With Shock Move to Atletico Madrid Despite Strong Napoli Interest

Atlético Madrid are weighing up a move for James Rodríguez this summer as the Colombia international looks set to leave Real Madrid.

Returning to his parent club after a two-year spell on loan with Bayern Munich, the 27-year-old is expected to be on the move once again as Los Blancos look to recoup some of the €303m they've already spent ahead of the 2019/20 season.

It's been widely reported that Rodríguez will move to S.S.C. Napoli this summer, linking up with manager Carlo Ancelotti for the third time in his career, but the playmaker won't make his final decision until after the Copa América.
