<p>James has <strong>three goals and four assists in nine league appearances</strong> with the <strong>Qatar Stars League</strong> outfit this season. He might be a bit far from the spotlight but, at 30,it seems that the playmakeris starting to get his career back on track.</p>

<p><em>“The team has not been able to get results in the league, but we’re doing well in the Cup, the idea is to win it,”</em> James Rodriguez said on <em>Twitch</em>, as quoted by <em>Diario Olé</em> in Spanish. <em><strong>“At least I’m playing. I’m doing well.</strong></em></p>
<p><em>“<strong>I’ve already played many games, I’m happy about that because it’s been a long time since I’ve played so many games in a row</strong>. I’m scoring goals, providing assists, and <strong>that’s why I came here, to be able to play and get into a rhythm, and to see what happens next as well</strong>.”</em></p>
<p>James did say he’s happy for his playing time in Qatar but that doesn’t mean he won’t consider a move away. <em>“I don’t know, you never know what will happen,”</em> he said when asked how long he would play in Qatar. <em><strong>“Although I would like to go somewhere else.</strong></em></p>
<p><em>“Phyisically I’m perfect, I’m healthy. <strong>They ask me if I would return to Europe, why not?</strong> I have the conditions for that, I’m getting into a rhythm. <strong>A good option would be the United States</strong>,”</em> James added.</p>

<p>Despite putting up some decent numbers at <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/bundesliga-t111" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bayern Munich</a>, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/james-rodriguez-t114" target="_blank" rel="noopener">James Rodriguez </a></strong>may now be remembered for being the “mastermind” of a forbidden night out with his Bayern teammates. <strong>During a preseason tour in the United States the German giants were playing high caliber opponents in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/juventus-t12" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Juventus</a>, Manchester City, and Manchester United</strong>.</p>
<p>Bayern, who would eventually go on to win the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/bundesliga-t111" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bundesliga</a> title, had a good run of form in those matches and before the Manchester United game, Niko Kovac, the coach at the time, told the players that the team’s night out request was not granted, stating: <strong><em>“We have to be focused and concentrated. The first Bundesliga game awaits us in six weeks. Celebrating is not possible in preparation.”</em></strong></p>
<p><strong>Well James Rodriguez took offense to that and he along with David Alaba, Rafinha and Franck Ribery</strong> organized a night on the town in Miami, and the group snuck out of the hotel the team was staying atand had a night filled with forbidden fun.</p>

<p></p></div>
<p><strong>According to Bild, the group of players went out and did not return until 6AM the following morning.</strong> James Rodriguez is said to have filmed much of the night’s activities and shared them in a WhatsApp group created by those who were committing the infractions.</p>
<p>Kovac’s brother, Robert was an assistant manager at the time, saw the players leaving and did not speak to them or bring up the situation afterward.<strong> During the season Bayern did win three titles, all domestic, Bundesliga, DFB-Pokal, and the DFL-Supercup.</strong></p>
<p>Kovac, who now coaches Monaco, was eventually sacked at the start of the following season, and the Bild report indicates that when management found out that Kovac did not hand out punishment to the players for their preseason night out it was a sign of not “<em>respecting the manager”</em> and began to lead to his sacking. </p>

Report: James Rodriguez centerpiece of Bayern Munich parting back in 2018 which led to manager sacking - Bolavip US

<p>He caught the world’s eye in the <strong>2014 FIFA World Cup</strong> in <strong>Brazil</strong> with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/colombia-t18091" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Colombia</strong></a> and made a fantastic move to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/real-madrid-t23" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Real Madrid</strong></a>. But <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/james-rodriguez" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>James Rodriguez</strong></a>‘s careereventually went downhill and it seems like <strong>he’s struggling to bounce back</strong>.</p>
<p>At 30 years of age, the former <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/porto-t110856" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Porto</strong></a>,<strong>AS Monaco</strong>, and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/bayern-munich-t112" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Bayern Munich</strong></a> star left <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/everton" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Everton</strong></a> after just one season in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/premier-league-t45" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Premier League</strong></a>, which didn’t end well as injuries caught up with him. With <strong>Carlo Ancelotti</strong> gone and <strong>Rafael Benitez</strong> at the helm of the Toffees, James decided to make a shocking switch toQatari side <strong>Al-Rayyan</strong>.</p>
<p>But his spell in the <strong>Qatar Stars League</strong> hasn’t begun as expected, as the playmaker struggled to be match fit. And, even when hereturned to action, James suffered new problems. <strong>Now, he’s facing a potentially lengthy suspension</strong> after a controversial episode on the weekend.</p>
<div style="text-align:center">

<h2>James Rodriguez faces potentially lengthy suspension in Qatar Stars League</h2>
<p>In his third Qatar Stars League appearance on Saturday when Al-Rayyan lost 2-1 to <strong>Al Arabi</strong>, James Rodriguez <strong>was sent off shortly before the final whistle</strong> in what has been a bizarre episode that could prove costly for him.</p>
<p>Everything began when James received an ugly foul from<strong>Aaron-Salem Boupendza</strong> in the edge of the box. The Colombian player <strong>went mad against the referee for not showing the red card to the Al Arabi man but he picked up a yellow card for protesting</strong>.</p>
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-23">      <span class="item first"></span>   <span class="item second"></span>   <span class="item third"></span>  </div>
<p></p></div>
<p>That only made things worse, with James losinghis head <strong>as his teammates tried to calm him down, but to no avail</strong>. In a shocking turn of events, James, who received the terrible foul, ended up seeing a second yellow card, beingsent off and <strong>facing a possible ban of4 to24 gamesfor aggresive behavior against the referee and unsportsmanlike conduct</strong>.</p>
<p>Sadly, James has also finished that game with a <strong>rib injury</strong> that will keep him on the sidelines for a few days, the club informed. James has played three league games (W1 L2) with Al-Rayyan, scoring a goal and producing an assist. And his slowstart to life in the Qatar Stars League <strong>could suffer another setback</strong> depending on the sanction he receives.</p>

James Rodriguez could get lengthy ban in Qatar Stars League after controversial episode - Bolavip US

<p>Back in the day, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/james-rodriguez" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>James Rodriguez</strong></a>wouldn’t miss an <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/international" target="_blank" rel="noopener">international</a> fixture unless he was ruled out with a serious injury or suspended. <strong>But things have changed</strong>and <strong>Reinaldo Rueda</strong> hasn’t called him up to the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/colombia-t18091" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Colombia</strong></a>national team – again.</p>
<p>The30-year-old playmaker, who shoneat<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/real-madrid-t23" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Real Madrid</strong></a> and recently at <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/everton" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Everton</strong></a> in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/premier-league-t45" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Premier League</strong></a>, won’t be part of Los Cafeteros’ squad for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/south-american-2022-world-cup-qualifiers-table-standings-and-results-20210902-0037.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>South American 2022 World Cup Qualifiers</strong></a> triple-fixture in October.</p>
<p>But how come one of the country’smost gifted players is missing the national team roster again? Here, we’ll break down why James Rodriguez isn’t playing against <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/south-american-world-cup-qualifying-2022-october-schedule-20211006-0017.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Uruguay, Brazil, and Ecuador</strong></a>.</p>

<p></p></div>
<h2>Why wasn’t James Rodriguez called up by Colombia for the October fixtures?</h2>
<p>To explain whyJames isn’t part of the Colombia national team, we have to go back to June, when Rueda opted to leave him out of the roster for the first time ahead of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/copa-america" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>2021 Copa America</strong></a>. He wasn’t fully recovered from an injury-marredend ofseason with Everton, but<strong>his reaction only made things worse</strong>.</p>
<p>James <strong>took it personal and showed himself frustrated</strong> for not being part of the squad. That didn’t help to change Rueda’s mind and he <strong>wasn’t called up to the September fixtures either</strong>. But he isn’t at his best right now.</p>
<p>James Rodriguez <strong>hasn’t played a single minute this season</strong>and the coaching staff of his current club <strong>Al-Rayyan</strong> have even stated he isn’t match fit yet. So, <strong>those are the reasons why James wasn’t re-called</strong> by Colombia.</p>

<p>The club in question is <strong>Al Rayyan</strong>, who are coached by former French World Cup winner Laurent Blanc. <strong>Al Rayyan have won eight championships in the Qatar Stars League, and the new seasonkicked off on September 11th. </strong>For Rodriguez it is a surprising destination considering he was the subject of a possible move to clubs like AC Milan, FC Porto, and Sevilla.</p>
<p>In total Rodriguez played 23 games for Everton and scored 6 goals, with the dips in form and constant injuries his signing was considered a disappointment by the fans and media pundits.</p>
<p><strong>According to reports all that is left is to put pen to paper for James Rodriguez to join Al Rayyan. </strong>Both sides need to determine how much the player will earn in terms of wages and for the player to be released by Everton officially.

<p><strong>At one time Rodriguez was the subject of a potential move to MLS following his stint at Bayern Munich but those talks were put on hold when he signed for Everton.</strong> Now it would seem that the Colombian’s future is in Qatar as all that is needed is to come to terms on the new deal.</p>
<p>Everton at the moment sit sixth in the Premier League standings having won 3 games, drawn 1, and lost 1, their first loss came last week to Aston Villa 3-0. </p>

<p><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/james-rodriguez" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>James Rodríguez</strong></a> has gone down the pecking order, the once promising Colombian midfielder is at a crossroads as Everton is looking to offload Rodríguez and his high salary. The former <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/real-madrid-t23" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Real Madrid</a> midfielder arrived at Goodison Park last season and made 23 appearances and scored 6 goals for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/everton" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Everton</a> in the Premier League.</p>
<p>James Rodríguez is reportedly on Everton books for £4,680,000, a high salary considering the return of investment which was filled with inconsistency and injuries during his first season at the club. <strong>Now according to reports out of the BBC, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/james-rodriguez-ready-to-leave-vverton-agent-offers-him-to-big-teams-20210624-0005.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Everton would be more than willing to part with the Colombian</a>ifthe right deal came along.</strong></p>
<p>Those reports have indicated that a Turkish club would be willing to acquire James Rodríguez on loan and pay a portion of his salary during the course of the season. <strong>The transfer would need to be done by Wednesday the latest.

<p><strong>According to the BBC report, second to last place Istanbul Basaksehir is keen on bringing in the Colombian midfielder and pay a portion of his wages.</strong> Everton’s new manager Rafa Benítez is not completely sold on the Colombian and would prefer other options, so Everton seem okay to execute the deal.</p>
<p>James Rodríguez has experienced a sort of fall from grace after a stint at Real Madrid and Bayern Munich. <strong>His time at Everton has not lived up to expectations and he is currently off of the Colombian national team.</strong></p>
<p>It is reported that the move can be executed if James Rodríguez accepts the loan, but just how much he would want to play for a near bottom of the table club in Turkey remains to be seen. <strong>James Rodríguez was the subject to a move to MLS last year and while that did not materialize it could still happen in the future.</strong></p>

<p><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/colombia-t18091" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Colombia</strong></a>are getting ready for their return to competition at the <strong>South American World Cup Qualifiers 2022.</strong> The Cafeteros will play against <strong>Bolivia</strong> on Thursday, September 2 to open the triple matchday of this international window. However, fans will miss <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/james-rodriguez" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>James Rodríguez</strong></a>, who wasn’t called on for the team.</p>
<p>As it already happened on the previous date and during the Copa América in Brazil, Reinaldo Rueda has decided not to count with <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/everton" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Everton’s</a> </strong>midfielder. Rodriguez was once the heart and soul of the team but he definitely has lost that place.</p>

<h2>Whyisn’t James Rodríguez in Colombia’s roster?</h2>
<p>The No. 10 of Colombia has been going through a difficult time for a couple of months. After suffering from various muscular issues at the end of the season with Everton, James wasn’t fit to play for the Copa America. At least, that’s what Rueda explained. But to the player, it was just a<strong><em> “managerial decision”.</em></strong></p>
<p>Rodríguez publicly addressed his sadness for not being called to play in the Copa America. <em>“It’s a decision from the coaching staff which I don’t agree with because they disrespected me,”</em> James said. These words seem to imply that it was some <strong>kind of problem </strong>between the player and the coach.</p>
<p>While it might be something about their relationship, it seems like Reinaldo Rueda simply doesn’t think James is fit enough to play with the team. An assumption that it doesn’t seem so crazy after James hasn’t played a single minute with<strong> Everton</strong> this season and he was trying to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/transfer-rumors-james-rodriguez-yerry-mina-among-6-players-everton-want-to-sell-20210716-0004.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">solve his future.</a> Also, he’s been isolated due to close contact with a positive Covid-19 case.</p>

2022 World Cup Qualifiers: Why is James Rodríguez not playing for Colombia?

2022 World Cup Qualifiers: Why is James Rodríguez not playing for Colombia? - Bolavip US

<p>It’s not unusual to see a team clean house and get rid of multiple players whenever a new manager steps in. That’s precisely what <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/everton" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Everton</strong></a> are looking forward to doing right now in an attempt to give<strong> Rafa Benitez </strong>the players he needs to thrive in the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/premier-league-t45" target="_blank" rel="noopener">English Premier League </a>and clinch a spot in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/champions-league-t24" target="_blank" rel="noopener">UEFA Champions League.</a></strong></p>
<p>The team’s front office has given the Spaniard boss <strong>plenty of confidence </strong>and vowed to release some funds to let him acquire some new players, meaning that they’ll have to part ways with several of their current assets.</p>
<p>So, according to multiple reports, the team would look to sell at many as six players, with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/colombia-t18091" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Colombian</strong></a> duo <strong>James Rodriguez and Yerry Mina </strong>as the two biggest names on the list right now.</p>
<h2>Transfer News: Everton Want To Sell Six Players, Including James Rodriguez &amp; Yerry Mina</h2>

<p><em>“Everton are preparing to sell of a significant chunk of their squad this summer as they look to raise funds for new manager Rafa Benitez. Benitez’s appointment has been met with skepticism from sections of the Everton support, given his obvious ties with rivals Liverpool, but he insists his allegiances will be quickly forgotten if he brings success back to Goodison Park,” </em>reported<strong> 90min.</strong></p>
<p><em>“To do that, though, he has admitted that players must be sold, and the Telegraph say that as many <strong>as six major players</strong> could be offloaded to raise funds,” </em>the report concluded.</p>
<p>Besides the aforementioned Rodriguez and Mina, Everton wouldn’t mind parting ways with<strong>Andre Gomes, Bernard, Fabian Delph, and Cenk Tosun</strong> as well to find some funds for Benitez.</p>

<p></p></div>
<p></p>
<p>It goes without saying that Everton will have a tough time competing with the likes of <strong>Liverpool, Manchester United, Chelsea, and Manchester City</strong> for the top of the EPL table but still, their current roster has plenty of room for improvement.</p>


Transfer Rumors: James Rodriguez, Yerry Mina among 6 players Everton want to sell

Transfer Rumors: James Rodriguez, Yerry Mina among 6 players Everton want to sell - Bolavip US

<p><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/copa-america-2021-why-aren-t-james-rodriguez-and-radamel-falcao-on-colombia-s-roster-20210615-0011.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">James Rodriguez</a> </strong>could be on his way out of<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/premier-league-t45" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Premier League</a> side <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/everton" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Everton</a></strong> due to the club’s issues with financial fair play. It has also been reported that the Colombian was not happy that Carlo Ancelotti left the club to return to Real Madrid, as he was one of the main reasons why he chose to play for Everton.</p>
<p>The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/colombia-t18091" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Colombian</a> only showed glimpses of his best self at Everton as injuries sidelined him for large chunks of the season, still, the midfielder was able to score 6 goals in 23 games. <strong>It has been reported in the Daily Mail that his agent has offered James Rodriguez to various clubs in Europe.</strong></p>
<p>If Rodriguez were to leave, Everton would clear up his large wage and receive a transfer fee. Rodriguez on the other hand would try to reestablish his career at a top club, after a rather disappointing spell with Everton. <strong>Here are the possible destinations for James Rodriguez.</strong></p>
<h2>AC Milan</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <img loading="lazy" data-height="412" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:412" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://bolavip.com/__export/1624544768344/sites/bolavip/img/2021/06/24/james_rodriguez_of_everton_battles_for_possession_with_lucas_moura_of_tottenham_crop1624544767868.jpg_22069893.jpg" width="740" height="412"><figcaption>    James Rodriguez of Everton battles for possession with Lucas Moura of Tottenham (Getty)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>James Rodriguez has always been looked upon favorably by <strong>AC Milan</strong> in the past. With the recent transfer of Hakan Calhanoglu, Milan are in search of a playmaker and the Colombian fits the bill as the Italian club looks to make a serious run for Serie A this season.</p>
<h2>Napoli</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <img loading="lazy" data-height="412" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:412" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://bolavip.com/__export/1624544831134/sites/bolavip/img/2021/06/24/james_rodriguez_of_everton_crop1624544830599.jpg_22069893.jpg" width="740" height="412"><figcaption>    James Rodriguez of Everton   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>Napoli </strong>could be another Italian destination for Rodriguez and would almost automatically fight for a starting position. If AC Milan does not materialize, then a move to Naples could be in the cards for the midfielder.</p>
<h2>Atlético Madrid</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <img loading="lazy" data-height="412" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:412" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://bolavip.com/__export/1624544911780/sites/bolavip/img/2021/06/24/diego_simeone_crop1624544911279.jpg_22069893.jpg" width="740" height="412"><figcaption>    Diego Simeone (Getty)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>Diego Simeone</strong> is no stranger when it comes to revitalizing the careers of world class talents. Simeone is very familiar with Rodriguez as he saw his development in Argentina and later while coaching in Spain. With Luis Suarez, João Félix, and Ángel Correa, James could jump right in and contribute.</p>
<h2>Real Madrid</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <img loading="lazy" data-height="412" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:412" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://bolavip.com/__export/1624544981373/sites/bolavip/img/2021/06/24/real_madrid_crop1624544980874.jpg_22069893.jpg" width="740" height="412"><figcaption>    James Rodriguez at Real Madrid (Getty)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>It looks farfetched that James Rodriguez would return to <strong>Real Madrid</strong>, but with the recent return of Carlo Ancelotti, it could happen. Although Ancelotti saw the setbacks he had at Everton, would he take that gamble again?</p>
<h2>MLS</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <img loading="lazy" data-height="412" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:412" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://bolavip.com/__export/1624545223835/sites/bolavip/img/2021/06/24/historic_crew_stadium_crop1624545223273.jpg_22069893.jpg" width="740" height="412"><figcaption>    Historic Crew Stadium (Getty)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>Major League Soccer</strong> has long been a rumored possible destination for the Colombian. Apparently, he is on the list of A list players the league would like to entertain having. While no team has ever really flat out come out and gone after him, Rodriguez could be a major name for clubs in need of star power, the New York Red Bulls comes to mind.</p>

Report | James Rodriguez ready to leave Everton: Agent offers him to big teams

Report | James Rodriguez ready to leave Everton: Agent offers him to big teams - Bolavip US

<p><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/colombia-t18091" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Colombia</strong></a> have had their sights set on <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/copa-america-2021-complete-schedule-find-here-the-fixtures-key-dates-format-groups-and-tv-rights-20210504-0012.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Copa America 2021</strong></a> for a long time. The moment has come and they finally kicked off their continental journey on the right foot, but without two iconic players such as <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/james-rodriguez" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>James Rodríguez</strong></a> and <strong>Radamel Falcao</strong>.</p>
<p>Los Cafeteros have even started their campaign with an unconventional starting eleven with few of their most famous players on the field, but <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/colombia-vs-ecuador-predictions-odds-and-how-to-watch-copa-america-2021-in-the-us-20210612-0011.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">managed to claim the three points</a> anyways. However, <strong>James’absence will probably remain a controversial call</strong> throughout thecompetition.</p>
<p><strong>Reinaldo Rueda</strong> shocked the soccer community <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/copa-america-2021-colombia-s-confirmed-28-man-roster-20210610-0016.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">by leaving one of the national team’s greatest players out</a>, while Falcao’s snub wasn’t very surprising instead. Nonetheless, the Colombian coach had to make a tough decision by leavingthese two out, and here we’ll take a look at the reasons for it.</p>
<div style="text-align:center">

<h2>Why wasn’t James Rodríguez called up by Colombia?</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <img loading="lazy" alt="James Rodriguez Colombia" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="James Rodriguez Colombia" src="https://bolavip.com/__export/1623794887417/sites/bolavip/img/2021/06/15/james.jpg_22993414.jpg" width="740" height="413"><figcaption>    Colombian superstar James Rodríguez was snubbed from Los Cafeteros’ Copa America 2021 roster (Getty).   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>Before their <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/south-america-world-cup-qualifiers-2022-standings-20210531-0017.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>South American World Cup Qualifiers 2022</strong></a> double-fixture against <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/peru-t142746" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Peru</a> and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/argentina-t30" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Argentina</a>, the Colombian national team announced that James Rodríguez wouldn’t be part of the team for those games nor the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/copa-america-2021-groups-schedule-cities-tv-broadcast-and-all-you-need-to-know-20210517-0008.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Copa America 2021</a>.</p>
<p>The statement explained that <strong>the coaching staff consideredthat James wasn’t fit to play</strong> these kinds of games, <strong>which the player has firmly denied</strong>. <em>“It’s a decision from the coaching staff whichI don’t agree with because they disrespected me,”</em> James said.</p>
<p><em>“I’m fine, <strong>I could have played in the<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/copa-america-2021-stats-titles-won-by-each-national-team-in-cup-s-history-20210528-0018.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Copa America</a></strong>. It was a managerial decision,”</em> he added. James Rodríguez has had a wonderful start to his first season with <strong>Everton</strong> but then suffered from injuries and remained sidelined in the final stretch of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/premier-league-t45" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Premier League</strong></a> campaign.</p>
<h2>Why isn’t Radamel Falcaoin Colombia’s squad?</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <img loading="lazy" alt="Radamel Falcao Colombia" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="Radamel Falcao Colombia" src="https://bolavip.com/__export/1623794956210/sites/bolavip/img/2021/06/15/falcao.jpg_22993414.jpg" width="740" height="413"><figcaption>    Colombia’s leading goalscorer, Radamel Falcao, is also missing Copa America 2021 (Getty).   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>James’ absence seems to be a bold move from Rueda, while <strong>Falcao’s exit makes more sense</strong>. Not because <em>El Tigre</em> isn’t good enough or lacks the talent to be in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/copa-america-2021-colombia-national-soccer-team-schedule-20210608-0016.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Colombia</a>‘s roster, but because he doesn’t seem to be thefirst-choice option anymore neither acrucial backup either.</p>
<p>His season with <strong>Galatasaray</strong> was far from good, as <strong>he struggled to be match fit and didn’t see the field as he would have liked t</strong>o. Falcao, 35, is heading to the final stages of his career and Colombia can rely on better options right now such as <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/copa-america-2021-the-most-expensive-players-from-each-national-team-20210601-0018.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Duván Zapata</a></strong>and<strong>Luis Muriel</strong>.</p>
<p>Reports from Colombia have also stated, however, that <strong>Rueda planned on calling up the national team’s leading goalscorer,but Falcao suggested he wasn’t in optimal conditions to play and the team would be better without him</strong>. Either way, hisand James’ absence could be a burden for Colombia, unless Rueda’s squad proves to be capable of filling their shoes.</p>

<p>That’s why we made this list of <strong>soccer starswho could come to Major League Soccer in the future</strong>. Some of them even publicly expressed their desire to join the league.</p>
<h2>Daniel Sturridge</h2>

<p>The Englishstriker, who was a member of the <strong>2019 Liverpoolsquad that clinched the UEFA Champions League trophy </strong>last year, is a free-agent player. His contract with Turkey’s Trabzonspor -his last club- was terminated in March 2020.</p>
<p><strong>David Beckham</strong> wants the forward to reinforce<strong> Inter Miami</strong>‘s attack next season. Also, Sturridge said he interested in joining the MLS in the future. However, there are European teams that will try to sign him too.</p>
<h2>Luis Suárez</h2>

<p>Which team would not like to have <strong>Luis Suárez</strong> in attack?The Uruguayan striker knows that he is problably living his last season at Barcelona and, as a 33-year-old player, doesn’t look with bad eyes a move to the MLS.</p>
<p>His compatriot<strong> Edinson Cavani </strong>rejected Inter Miami’s offer to join the team, so Suárez will surely be one of Beckham’snext targets. Even <strong>Seattle Sounders’ Nicolás Lodeiro</strong> talked in late 2019 about the possibility of seeing Suárez in the MLS in the near future:<em> “(Suárez) wants to come to MLS. He is always asking me about the league. Sooner or later he’ll come to MLS”</em>.</p>
<h2>Antonio Valencia</h2>

<p></p></div>
<p>Former <strong>Manchester United player Antonio Valencia</strong> could also join the MLS in the neat future. Apparently, the Ecuadorian received offers from the Major League Soccer, Argentina and Italy after finishing his contract with Liga de Quito.</p>
<p>However, the MLS would be his favorite choice. Valencia had even talked to his former teammates <strong>Zlatan Ibrahimovic</strong> and <strong>Wayne Rooney </strong>about the MLS and the possibility of playing there, in 2019.</p>
<h2>Gonzalo Higuaín</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <img alt="" data-height="333" data-size="w:594,h:330" data-width="600" hspace="5" src="https://bolavip.com/export/sites/bolavip/img/2020/07/14/gonzalo_higuain__crop1594757580131.jpg_1030179834.jpg" title="" vspace="5"><figcaption>   Juventus’ Gonzalo Higuaín (Getty).  </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>This could be<strong> Gonzalo </strong><strong>Higuaín</strong>‘s last season at Juventus. The Argentine striker is one of the main targets of many MLS teams for the next transfer window, and a move to the Major League Soccercould be a wise and attractive choice for him.</p>
<p><strong>Los Angeles Galaxy</strong> are one of the teams that will try to convince Higuaín to join the club next season. Some rumours also linked the striker with <strong>Inter Miami</strong>, but<strong> DC United</strong> seems to be the main competitor, as his brother <strong>Federico Higuaín</strong> plays for the team.</p>
<h2>Mario Balotelli</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <img alt="" data-height="333" data-size="w:1024,h:570" data-width="600" hspace="5" src="https://bolavip.com/export/sites/bolavip/img/2020/07/14/mario_balotelli_brescia_crop1594759694066.jpg_1030179834.jpg" title="" vspace="5"><figcaption>   Mario Balotelli of Brescia looks on scoring goal during a Serie A match (Getty).  </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>Mario Balotelli</strong> might be one of the most controversial players in the world, but nobody can’t deny his talent. The Italian forward is looking for his best form at Brescia after the competition hiatus and some MLS teams have already asked about his current contract situation.</p>
<p>One of the <a href="https://www.football-italia.net/153971/report-la-galaxy-ask-about-balotelli" target="_blank" rel="noopener">interested teams are Los Angeles Galaxy</a>, as Balotelli would not extend his contract with Brescia. <strong>Rumours have linked the striker to many MLS teams in the past years.</strong>It will only be a matter of time to see if he finally decides to join the league.</p>
<h2>James Rodríguez</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <img alt="" data-height="333" data-size="w:1024,h:570" data-width="600" hspace="5" src="https://bolavip.com/export/sites/bolavip/img/2020/07/14/james_colombia_crop1594760493776.jpg_1030179834.jpg" title="" vspace="5"><figcaption>   James Rodríguez is one of David Beckham’s main target for the next transfer window (Getty).  </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>David Beckham wants to build an Inter Miami side capable of fighting for the MLS Cup in the comming seasons, and he is already trying to convince world-class players to join the team. And one of his desires is <strong>to sign Colombia’s James Rodríguez</strong>.</p>
<p>The attacking midfielder does not have much playing time at Real Madrid and a move to the Major League Soccer would guarantee him a leading role at any team. However, <strong>some Premier League sides, such as Manchester United</strong>, are also interested in signing the Colombian player for next season.</p>
<h2>Cristiano Ronaldo</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <img alt="" data-height="333" data-size="w:1024,h:570" data-width="600" hspace="5" src="https://bolavip.com/export/sites/bolavip/img/2020/07/14/cristiano_ronaldo_juventus_crop1594761549995.jpg_1030179834.jpg" title="" vspace="5"><figcaption>   Cristiano Ronaldo of Juventus celebrates after scoring a goal (Getty).  </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>Let’s get something straight: <strong>Cristiano Ronaldo </strong>has a contract and will stay with Juventus. However, <strong>it doesn’t mean that he could not move to the MLS sometime in the future</strong>. The Portuguese superstar is still showing all his scoring abilities every time he plays for the Italian side.</p>
<p>Orlando City star<a href="https://us.bolavip.com/soccer/Cristiano-Ronaldo-and-Nani-Every-title-they-won-playing-together-20200713-0006.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nani, Ronaldo’s former Manchester United teammate</a>, said<strong> there’s a chance to see CR7 in the MLS</strong>, as they have talked about that possibility. But the truth is it will not happen any time soon.</p>
