La Liga giants will cash in on pair to fund move for Eden Hazard, according to reports
And a wealth of Premier League sides are set to battle it out for the £100MILLION pair.
The attacking midfield duo were jeered by home fans during the disappointing 1-0 defeat to local rivals Atletico on Saturday, which all-but wiped Real out of the La Liga title race.
Manchester United were linked with a British-record move for Rodriguez in January.
The Colombian, 24, has failed to earn a regular spot in Zinedine Zidane’s side after falling out of favour earlier this season under former manager Rafa Benitez.
Real had earmarked the former Monaco man as the long-term successor to poster-boy Cristiano Ronaldo — and still hope Zidane can help his rediscover his form.But Marca reports that the La Liga giants will be tempted to sell up if they can get around the £63m they paid for his services after he won the Golden Boot at the 2014 World Cup.
They will also listen to offers of £35m for Spain international Isco.
And the Gunners reportedly agreed a deal giving them first option on the star next season.
Isco is highly-rated at Madrid — and Zidane has gone on record to say that he sees similarities between the midfielder and his own playing style.
The 23-year-old started the first few games under his idol, but has since dropped down the pecking order, being substituted in his last three appearances.
Madrid are set for a squad overhaul in the summer ahead of their impending transfer ban.
SunSport revealed in January that the 10-time European champions are preparing an astonishing £250MILLION raid on the Prem, with £80m Hazard their No1 target.
They are also lining up moves for Man City ace Sergio Aguero and United keeper David De Gea.
