Zinedine Zidane coy on James Rodriguez, Jese Rodriguez futures

Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane is non-committal over the futures of James Rodriguez and Jese Rodriguez, who have both been tipped to leave the club this summer.

Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane has remained coy on the futures of James Rodriguez and Jese Rodriguez amid reports that the duo are set to leave the club this summer.

Both players have been linked with an exit from the Bernabeu having failed to establish themselves as first-team regulars under Zidane last season.

James has been linked with the likes of Chelsea, Manchester United, Manchester City and West Ham United, while Jese has also been tipped to move to England.

"A large squad gives you a few more problems but that comes with the territory as Real Madrid coach," Zidane told reporters when questioned about the futures of the pair.

"I have to play the most competitive side I can and I'll do the same thing this season, that's my responsibility."

Zidane also insisted that he is "happy" with his squad amid speculation that Madrid are looking to sign Paul Pogba from Juventus.
