Για αρχή, στην υπόθεση Χάμες θα πω ένα πράγμα: Ο @olympiacosfc έκανε πράγματα για τον παίκτη, που ίσως τελικά δεν έπρεπε. She τον κάλυψε / προστάτεψε σε καταστάσεις & περιπτώσεις που τα πράγματα ήκν. He το κάνει & τώρα. Με την κοινή συναινέσει λύση συμβολαίου. Αυτά προς το παρόν https://t.co/jlq9UIweXh

James Rodríguez “could have been the best footballer in our history”
He arrived at Real Madrid where he shone in the first season, but left in the second and on “bad terms” with his coach.
He landed in Bayern Munich where he emerged champion and had a high performance, but his contract ended and he left, beginning his ‘viacrucis’ through the teams. He because he returned to the merengue team where he met Benítez, with whom he already had a conflictive past.
Then he came to the Averton; He was injured and could not continue, also because he met Benítez again, his ex-dt in Madrid. From there, he went to Al Rayya in Qatar in 2021, where he was not expected either.
After a few controversial months due to his vacations and his injury, a new path was opened
“He could have been the best player in our history,” Londoño said.
However, the soccer player from Cucuta has had problems between his continuous injuries and his behavior.
“James does not end his contracts, his cost has depreciated (more than 60 million euros), he has suffered 37 injuries in his career that have taken him off the pitch for 683 days, he has lost more than 100 games, and in 15 years of career in Banfield in Argentina, he only plays 21 games per league”, was the summary of the “bad streak” of the most emblematic star footballer of Norte de Santander.
These days, the Colombian lefty will be on vacation and negotiating his next landing.
