James Rodriguez returned to Madrid's "Real" in the summer - after Munich's "Bayern" team decided not to buy out the Colombian's contract. The 27-year-old footballer was loaned to "Bayern" for two seasons in 2017. Bayern has already paid 13 million euros to the Madrid club for the two-year loan agreement. The contract included an option to acquire all rights to him for 42 million euros. However, J. Rodriguez, who did not establish himself under Niko Kovac, will be forced to return to Madrid this summer and solve his future. With Zinedine Zidane's return to the club, it's hard to imagine that "Real" will keep him. "The decision was made by mutual agreement," said Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge. - He talked to me personally and asked us not to buy out his contract. I was in favor of him staying, but he wants to play and be a regular starter. He can't get that here." J. Rodriguez should start preparing for the season with Madrid's "Real". According to the latest information, Carlo Ancelotti's coached "Napoli" is interested in his services. The Spanish club values the Colombian at 60 million euros.
