Four likely destinations for James Rodriguez this summer

#2 Paris Saint-Germain

Manchester United v Paris Saint-Germain - UEFA Champions League Round of 16: First Leg

Given their obscene amounts of spending in recent years, it would not come as a major surprise if Paris Saint-Germain were to make a summer coup for Rodriguez. But in order not to run foul of FFP rules, the Ligue 1 champions would most likely have to sell one marquee player to facilitate this transfer.

On evidence of their shambolic showing on the European front last season, the midfield is a significant area of weakness for Thomas Tuchel's side, and it is one which he is keen to address.

This is where Rodriguez comes in, but seeing their need to sell and reduce their wage bill, it has been reported that the Colombian could be used in the deal to take Neymar to Real Madrid.

Neymar has failed to help the French giants to European glory and Kylian Mbappe has showed that he is more than capable of starring in the Brazilian's absence, and it could be in PSG's interest to facilitate this transfer.
