Real Madrid Transfer: James Rodriguez Addresses Rumours, Isco Latest
Real Madrid star James Rodriguez has once again committed his future to Los Blancos, while reports from Italy say the Spanish giants will demand €35 million (£30 million) and add-ons for reported Juventus, Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City target Isco.
As reported by C. Roche of AS, Rodriguez professed his love for Real after the win over Eibar in La Liga, reacting to rumours linking him with a move away from the club: "When I am given opportunites I always try and do well. This is all I think about. I want to always be here. It's clear that in life and football you never know what is going to happen but I want to remain here."

The Colombia international scored and provided an assist in the 4-1 triumph, playing 75 minutes in total. It marked the second straight match in which he made a meaningful impact, a welcome change for Rodriguez.

The 25-year-old hasn't become the world-class attacking midfielder many he thought he would be by now in the last few seasons after his big-money move from AS Monaco to the Spanish capital. He hasn't been an automatic starter under manager Zinedine Zidane, which has led to plenty of transfer speculation in the last two seasons.
His status has a fringe player might suggest he hasn't been productive for the team, but per Squawka Football, that's not the case:
Rodriguez doesn't sit at the top of the Real pecking order, but when fit and given consistent playing time, he has proven he belongs. The 2014 FIFA World Cup hero plays well alongside the likes of Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo, and he hasn't made a secret of his love for the team, either.
Here's a look at some of his highlights:
Real are expected to sell some of their midfield depth and reinvest in young talent during the summer, but between Rodriguez and Isco, the latter seems more likely to go.
According to Tuttosport (h/t Calciomercato24, via Calciomercato.com), Los Blancos have decided on an asking price for the former Malaga man, who seems to be edging toward the exit door in a hurry.
Isco finds himself in a similar position to Rodriguez, but according to the report, he and Zidane do not get along well, and that could lead to a split. With his contract set to expire in 2018, a summer move seems likely.
The Spain international remains an excellent midfield option, and his obvious potential will tempt clubs into spending big. Here's a look at some of his highlights:
The reported £30 million asking price is steep for a player who will soon be a free agent, and add-ons could push the eventual fee much higher. That figure is likely just the starting point for negotiations, however.
