3 midfielders Manchester City should look to sign in January

James Rodriguez

James Rodriguez’s Real Madrid future is far from certain.

The Colombian captain made a big-money move to the Bernabeu off the back of an incredible World Cup campaign in 2014, and started his career in the Spanish capital with 17 goals in his first season.

Since then though, he has struggled to have the same impact, and has scored just nine goals in 41 appearances for Zinedine Zidane’s side over the last 18 months.

With no La Liga appearance since September 21, the 25-year-old may seek a move elsewhere in a bid to resume his career as, at the age of 25, he should be entering the peak of his career.

City would certainly benefit from a fully-firing Rodriguez, and should consider a January move for the midfielder.
