Juventus considering Arsenal-target Rodriguez, why they would win race

Italian Serie A outfit Juventus are reported to be interested in signing Real Madrid playmaker James Rodriguez and could make a move for him in the coming summer window.

James Rodriquez is currently in a 2-year loan spell at the German Bundesliga outfit Bayern Munich where he is having a mixed performance with his stay at the club on a permanent basis not looking sure.

English Premier League outfit Arsenal were keen to secure his signature in the last January winter transfer window but they failed and there are reports that the North London outfit will again move in on him in the coming summer window.

However, the Gunners might lose out on the race with the interest coming from the Serie A champions ahead of the summer window.

The Italian champions are understood to be preparing a bid already so as to have him replace Paulo Dybala who is considering leaving the Old Lady in the summer.

Meanwhile, it is still unclear if he would be heading back to the Spanish La Liga champions which makes him available but the North London outfit might miss out as James Rodriquez would consider Juventus a better choice because of the Champions League and chances of winning a title.
