James Rodriguez "happy" at Real Madrid

James Rodriguez has insisted that he is "happy" at Real Madrid as speculation linking the Colombian international with a move away from the Bernabeu continues to gather pace.

James joined Real Madrid from AS Monaco off the back of an impressive 2014 World Cup, and he scored 17 times during a successful first season at the Bernabeu.

The 25-year-old's performances have dipped over the last 12 months, however, and he has only scored once in 14 appearances for the Spanish giants this season.

Chelsea, Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain have all been linked with moves for the attacker, but James has denied reports that he will look to leave the Spanish capital next month.

"When one wants to play at a club like Real Madrid, you have to know that this is a team that wants to win titles, and one that is accustomed to winning them," James told Marca. "I am happy here, hopefully I can play, add one more title and can continue to do good things."

James is currently with the Real Madrid squad in Japan preparing for the final of the Club World Cup.
