Everton hope the double signing of Real Madrid stars Lucas Vazquez and Isco will help to convince James Rodriguez to stay this summer, say reports.
Both Merengues players have been linked with a summer exit, as Vazquez is out of contract at the end of the season and Isco is about to enter the final year of his deal after playing a marginal role under Zinedine Zidane this term.
According to Italian outlet Calciomercato.it, the double signing could help convince Colombia international Rodriguez to prolong his stay at Goodison Park, following speculation that he is seeking a move back to Spain after just one year on Merseyside.
The Rossoneri have also shown interest in Isco but could face additional competition from Juventus for the playmaker’s signature.
