James Rodriguez‘s career didn’t go as expected in the last few years. The Colombian star struggled to find consistency from the day he left Real Madrid, and at 31, his future looks up in the air.

After a lackluster loan stint with Bayern, the 2014 World Cup sensation spent a few seasons with Everton in the Premier League before making a shocking move to Qatari outfit Al Rayyan. His latest club was Olympiacos, but it didn’t last long.

James has been a free agent for a while now, and even though he’s been linked with a number of teams, he’s still on the open market. But in the meantime, the Colombian has apparently agreed to play in the Kings League.
