James ‘will not go to Manchester United’, Zidane could be to blame

According to Don Balon, Real Madrid midfielder James Rodriguez ‘will not go to Manchester United’. The Colombian international is currently on loan with Bayern Munich until 2019 but has no intention on making the move permanent with the German Bundesliga outfit either. He’s more likely to return to Real next summer and try to forge a starting place in the first-team.

Manager Zinedine Zidane has been linked with Manchester United as a replacement for Jose Mourinho, but James has no intention of following the former Real boss to Old Trafford, given he struggled for playing time when the pair were working together.
