C. Valderrama: "James must leave "Real"

The legend of the Colombian national team Carlos Valderrama urges the Madrid "Real" club to sell James Rodriguez.

After returning to Madrid following a two-year loan agreement, J. Rodriguez is currently training with the team and preparing for friendly matches with "Salzburg", but it is still unclear whether Zinedine Zidane intends to keep him.

C. Valderrama claims that J. Rodriguez must leave, otherwise he will be relegated to a substitute role next season.

"Real" must let him go to another team," - said the Colombian. - "The coach doesn't want him, so he won't get any playing time here."

"The fans and the president were happy when James arrived, but the current coach doesn't want him. He knows he won't play under Zidane, so he must be allowed to leave," - added the former footballer.

According to various sources, J. Rodriguez is wanted by Madrid's "Atletico", but the "white team" no longer wants to transfer another player to their neighbors. "Napoli" is still interested in the Colombian, but they are not willing to pay the requested amount for him.
