Real Madrid reportedly place James Rodriguez on the transfer list just two years after signing the Colombian for more than £60m.

Real Madrid have reportedly placed attacking midfielder James Rodriguez on the transfer list.

The 24-year-old moved to the Bernabeu for a reported €80m (£62m) in 2014, but has fallen down the pecking order at the club in recent months.

The Colombia international made just 17 league starts throughout the 2015-16 campaign, and was forced to watch from the bench as Real clinched their 11th European Cup with victory over Atletico Madrid at the weekend.

According to El Confidencial, Los Blancos have now informed James that he is free to leave the club this summer, although the report also claims that Madrid want to recoup the money that they spent on him.

The transfer fee could be a sticking point in negotiations, with James still contracted to the club until 2020.

He has made 78 appearances since his arrival in the Spanish capital, scoring 25 goals.
