Real Madrid are considering selling James Rodriguez to fund future transfers, according to Sky Sports.
Rodriguez, 24, has endured a frustrating campaign so far after first falling out of favour under Rafa Benitez and then having several off-field distractions call into question his future at the club.
The Colombia international has been heavily linked with a move to United in the past and they could be successful in their pursuit with Madrid weighing up whether to sell the star midfielder after failing to find any suitors for Cristiano Ronaldo.
Since the start of last season, no player to have featured in more than 20 league games has created a chance more often than Rodriguez (27.3 mins) in La Liga.
