English Premier League champions Manchester United are reportedly monitoring the progress of FC Porto winger James Rodriguez.
The Uruguayan International is already billed as one of Europe’s finest young talents and despite only being 20, he is an established member of the Estadio do Dragao first team.
Signed from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-Ronaldo-c9629, due to his speedy step-overs and ability to drift past his man with ease.
While his more illustrious teammate http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Hulk-c16436 was arguably the one to watch in Porto’s two-legged tie with Manchester City, the Brazilian was selfish and opted for personal glory rather than team spirit. On the other hand, the younger James demonstrated total self restraint as he pinged crosses into the box and tried to inspire his side to victory.
A host of scouts were present at the Etihad stadium and according to reports; one of them was an Old Trafford native.
Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson, who has keen eye for young talent, allegedly has the Sky Blue International on his radar and will be looking to sign him this summer as he looks to build a 4th team to conquer Europe.
The use of wingers may have died down in most of the modern game, but Fergie has sustained his model of success with wide men. Players like Luis http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Antonio-Valencia-c6345 and Ashley Young are imperative to the United style of play and are often spearheads in attack.
James Rodriguez possesses the right attributes to succeed in Manchester, as he is at home on both flanks and can be deployed as an attacking midfield or even as a striker if required.
Besides versatility, he has a superb left-foot, which can often cause mayhem against the best of defences.
While the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Portugal-c2984.
The Dragons have slapped a €30 million price-tag on the forward’s services in an attempt to ward off potential suitors, but if United’s interest is indeed real, they will be more than willing to splash the cash on one of the continent’s most highly rated prospects.
