MU reached an agreement with James Rodriguez
Journalist Antonio Casale, director of the En La Jugada program of the RCN radio station (Colombia), has just reported that MU and James Rodriguez have reached a personal agreement.

James Rodriguez has reached a personal agreement with MU |
Accordingly, MU contacted Jorge Mendes, James' representative and coach Jose Mourinho, to negotiate the necessary terms. Everything went well.
Although coach Mourinho does not consider James a top priority, MU is very interested in this player. The deal to buy James will help the Red Devils take a significant commercial step.
This comes from the fact that James has a sponsorship deal with Adidas. Meanwhile, Adidas is also currently the outfit supplier for the Manchester team.
RCN also reported that captain Wayne Rooney will leave this summer, leaving the number 10 shirt to James. In the short term, this will be a promising deal to help MU make a profit in the shortest time.
Inter spread money to invite Conte
Antonio Conte has just helped Chelsea return to the English football throne. Immediately, the Italian coach also received an offer from his home country.
Gazzetta dello Sport reported that despite having considered switching to Luis Enrique, Inter were still convinced by Conte. The achievements of the 47-year-old captain with Chelsea have made the Chinese owners even more eager to have him.

Inter ready to pay world's highest salary for Conte |
A private source from Gazzetta dello Sport revealed that Inter are ready to make Conte the highest paid coach in the world, far exceeding the 20 million euro mark per year, and more than double what they previously paid Jose Mourinho (in the 2009-10 season, Mourinho received 11 million euros when he helped Inter win the treble).
In addition, Inter promised to give Conte a budget of 140-150 million euros for transfers. This amount will increase if Inter can liquidate players that are not in the plan.
One thing for Inter to hope for: Conte wants to work closer to his family, who live in Italy, rather than moving to England with him.
Barca pursue Marcos Alonso
Chelsea are now the centre of the world, after winning the 2016-17 Premier League title. Many clubs are looking to London to “steal” the heroes of The Blues.

Barca are hoping to sign Marcos Alonso |
Barca is one of them. The Catalan team's latest plan is to bring Marcos Alonso to the Nou Camp.
In his first season in England, Alonso played brilliantly. He was one of the important links that helped coach Conte lead Chelsea to the championship title.
Barca are looking for a new Eric Abidal, who can play left-back and centre-back. This summer, Barca are likely to sell Mathieu, Lucas Digne and even Jordi Alba, so Alonso is a priority.
