Done! Arsenal set to welcome star player after bid ‘accepted’

English Premier League side Arsenal are reported to have had their bid accepted for Spanish La Liga outfit Real Madrid star James Rodriguez.

Should this report be true, the Colombia international will be a Gunner in the next couple of days as paper works would be finalized as well as personal terms agreed upon.

James Rodriguez has lost out of the Real Madrid team and has been relegated to the bench which makes an escape route for him necessary and the North London outfit have been tipped to be the best fit for the star player.

• The defensive solution or Arsenal crisis hinted

With Arsenal already missing England international Danny Welbeck, James Rodriguez could serve as a replacement for the remaining six months until the end of the season.

James Rodriguez is currently on loan at the German Bundesliga outfit Bayern Munich where he is also not having it good and reports by The Mirror claims that the Gunners have submitted a bid of about £63 million for the 27-year-old.

Despite his poor form, he is tipped to be a success at the Emirate Stadium having scored a total of three goals in 11 appearances for the Bundesliga giants this season.

Meanwhile, developments on this report would be expected in coming days.
