Real Madrid improved his bid for World Cup top scorer James Rodríguez golden shoe star today become another Los Galactico.

The star of the World Cup, Colombian  James Rodriguez, will sign for Real Madrid this Wednesday for £60million in a transfer that will push several players towards the Premier League.

Rodriguez was in Spain on Sunday on his way back from Colombia to Monaco, where he will say his goodbye to the club this week before returning to the Spanish capital to sign a new six-year deal.

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has been away on business in South America but returns this week to ensure that once again the European champions’ summer spending goes beyond the £80m mark – adding Rodriguez’s name to the £20m capture of Bayern Munich’s Toni Kroos last week.

French newspaper L’Equipe  said on Saturday night that Monaco would accept a €90m offer from Los Blancos for the 22-year-old who took the World Cup by storm.

They reported that a deal could be completed by Monday, while Spanish paper AS last week said Rodriguez and the defending European champions had already verbally agreed terms.
