Real Madrid willing to sell James to beat Barcelona to Coutinho

Real Madrid are ready to join the battle for Liverpool ace Philippe Coutinho.

The People says Real Madrid are readying a summer bid for Coutinho.

They say the La Liga giants are even willing to sell both James Rodriguez and Isco to finance a £70m raid for the Brazil international.

Chelsea's Eden Hazard is another target for the European champions but the Blues don't want to sell and a deal isn't thought to be close.

Barcelona are also interested in Coutinho, though Liverpool chiefs are adamant the Brazilian is not for sale.
