#2. Arsenal
Arsenal are on course to begin a new life under Mikel Arteta. The Spaniard was recently announced as the new man in charge of the Gunners and has already made some noticeable changes in the team. He has been assured that Arsenal board will give him some backing in the winter transfer market so that the team can increase its depth. James Rodriguez would fit the fast passing, the creative play style of football that Arteta is trying to implement.
It is kind of similar to what he played under Jupp Heynckes at Bayern Munich. Real Madrid, on the other hand, should not be causing many obstacles in a loan with an option to buy kind of deal which will benefit all the parties involved. Arteta, himself, being Spanish, will make things easier for the integration of James Rodriguez to the squad as they share a common language, should a move to The Emirates take place this winter.
#1. Everton
The club that tops the list is Everton. James Rodriguez played the best football of his life under Carlo Ancelotti who is now at Everton. He was the reason that the Colombian joined Bayern Munich on a loan deal in 2017 and the duo shares a brilliant bond between themselves. Ancelotti tried to bring James to Napoli this summer but the financial aspects of the deal were complicated and eventually, the move fell through. Don Carlo, who was appointed as Everton manager recently, wants a reunion once again and the gifted playmaker is his primary target this transfer window.
A reunion makes sense in every way as Carlo knows how to get the best out of James. Many sections of media are reporting Everton are preparing themselves for talks with Real Madrid on a possible transfer for James with an initial possible loan with a clause to make the move permanent in summer.
