Arsenal and Manchester United are both reportedly interested in signing Real Madrid attacker James Rodriguez during this summer's transfer window.
The 29-year-old is widely expected to leave the Bernabeu in the coming weeks, having struggled for regular action last term, making just 14 appearances in all competitions.
According to Marca, Arsenal and United are both keen on bringing the Colombia international to the Premier League ahead of the 2020-21 campaign.
The report claims that the playmaker is valued by Madrid in the region of €25m (£22.5m), although the South American's wage demands could yet scupper a move.
Rodriguez is allegedly prepared to accept a slight reduction on his €8m (£7.2m)-a-year salary but is not open to dropping his pay packet by 50%, which has been proposed by some clubs.
The attacker managed just one goal and two assists for Los Blancos last term.
