Real Madrid star James seen with Carlo Ancelotti at Liverpool hotel ahead of Everton transfer

James Rodriguez has been pictured having a chat with Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti ahead as he nears his exit from Real Madrid.

The attacking midfielder has completed his medicals and agreed personal terms, but an issue with agent fees are reportedly the reason for the deal not being made official yet.

Everton will pay Madrid a fee near the €25m mark which they have been demanding to sell the out-of-favour star.

James had been desperately seeking his exit from the Santiago Bernabeu for quite some-time and now is almost near a move to a club where he’ll get to play on a regular basis.
