Real Madrid are ready to include James Rodriguez in a deal to sign Christian Eriksen from Tottenham, according to reports.<\/p>\n
Los Blancos have been strongly linked with the Danish playmaker and were reportedly weighing up a \u00a3100million bid to acquire his services\u00a0earlier this month.<\/p>\n
Now, according to Spanish news outlet\u00a0AS,\u00a0Bernebeu chiefs are willing to include Rodriguez in a part-exchange offer for Eriksen in order to cheapen Spurs’ asking price for the Dane.<\/p>\n
The midfielder had a solid first season with Bayern, netting seven goals and 11 assists in 23 Bundesliga matches, but has fallen out of favour in Bavaria this term under Niko Kovac.<\/p>\n
He has featured just 12 times in all competitions and only finished the full 90 minutes on one occasion.<\/p>\n
The 27-year-old has also been regularly hampered by ankle issues and a knee ligament injury, and although Bayern do have a \u00a336million option to buy him permanently they are unlikely to do so.<\/p>\n
Despite his injuries AS have reported a number of clubs remain interested in the Real Madrid outcast, including Arsenal, Juventus and Napoli.<\/p>\n
And if\u00a0Eriksen continues to stall on signing a new deal\u00a0with Spurs, the offer could be too tempting for Mauricio Pochettino to refuse.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
