Arsenal are the favourites to sign Real Madrid attacker James Rodriguez this summer, according to a report.

Arsenal are reportedly in pole position to sign Real Madrid attacker James Rodriguez this summer.

The Colombia international is widely expected to leave the Bernabeu on a permanent deal ahead of the 2020-21 campaign, having struggled to secure regular action since returning from a loan spell at Bayern Munich.

A number of clubs, including Everton and Wolverhampton Wanderers, have been linked with the 28-year-old, who has only managed one goal and two assists in 13 appearances for Madrid this season.

Arsenal, though, have also recently been credited with an interest.

According to Marca, the Premier League is the 'most feasible' option for the South American this summer, and the Gunners are in pole position to secure Rodriguez's signature.

The attacker's current deal with Zinedine Zidane's side will expire in 2021.
