Real Madrid have reportedly decided that James Rodriguez will be sold during the summer transfer window.

James has spent the last two seasons on loan at Bayern Munich, and the Bundesliga giants have an option to sign the playmaker on a permanent basis.

However, according to Marca, Bayern do not intend on taking up that opportunity and it will lead to the Colombia international returning to the Bernabeu.

The 27-year-old still has just over two years remaining on his contract at Real, but the attacker does not feature in the plans of Zinedine Zidane.

Real may be open to entertaining cut-price offers for Rodriguez given their desire to press on with their own transfer plans this summer.
