According to Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo, Liverpool are among those interested in Real Madrid star James Rodriguez.
The Colombia international has been heavily linked with a move away from the La Liga giants this summer.
He has struggled to establish himself him in the side since his big money move from Monaco after starring in the World Cup in 2014.

A whole host of clubs have been linked with his signature, and now it appears that Jurgen Klopp could be a suitor with Mundo Deportivo reporting that Liverpool are also interested in the 25-year-old.
In fact, according to the newspaper, they have gone a step further and made Madrid aware of their interest in a move.

Unfortunately for Reds fans, a switch to Anfield seems unlikely to happen because of his huge asking price.
The La Liga giants paid £71 million for him two years ago and want at least £51 million this summer, a price that president Florentino Perez does not believe that Klopp’s side could afford after their spending already.
