West Ham United set to try their luck with a bid for James Rodriguez?

West Ham United are reportedly planning to launch a bid for Real Madrid attacker James Rodriguez.

It has been widely claimed that the Spanish giants are willing to sell the Colombian, who struggled for regular game time last season.

The Champions League winners are reportedly holding out for €80m (£67m), and even though the Hammers are unlikely to meet Madrid’s asking price, the London outfit intend to table an offer, according to Marca.

West Ham’s fellow Premier League clubs Manchester United, Chelsea and Manchester City are also rumoured to be interested, while Paris Saint-Germain are thought to be mulling over a bid.

Rodriguez moved to the Bernabeu from Monaco in 2014 for a reported €80m fee.
