Colombia's World Cups star James Rodriguez has finalized a big money move to Real Madrid.
The attacking midfielder who won the Golden Boot in Brazil has moved from French team Monaco.
It is believed Madrid have paid a transfer fee of about €80 million with the 23-year-old putting pen to paper on a six-year deal.

The Colombian who joined Monaco from FC Porto for €45 million last summer, will be presented to Real fans at the Santiago Bernabeu tonight at 7pm Irish time.
The signing will raise doubts about a number of Real Madrid midfielders including Angel Di Maria, Isco and Sami Khedira, with all three linked with moves away from the club.
