“I don't think James is in Atlético's plans now”

The future of James Rodriguez continues to speak red and white. Last summer, the Colombian was close, very close, to sign for the Atlético de Madrid. But finally, Florentino Pérez backed out when everything was closed. The injury of Asensio and, above all, the 3-7 that the rojiblanco team endorsed to Real Madrid in New Jersey changed the opinion of the white president.

This summer, James continues to have Atlético as the first option. He does not want to move from Madrid and the option of placing himself under the orders of Simeone It seduces him enormously. But now the situation in the Metropolitan has changed, and the operation seems complicated.

To make matters worse, his own Enrique Cerezo has been responsible for removing more options to the possible signing. He has done it in Radio Brand, where he also radically defended Cholo. “No idea. I do not think that the truth is right now in Atlético de Madrid's plans right now, ”said the rojiblanco president about the coffee maker.

“JAMES WILL PLAY ATHLETIC”

The statements of Cherry collide with what was announced on Tuesday by the journalist Pedro Pablo Parrado in Goal. The prestigious statement stated emphatically that James Rodriguez He would play next season at Atlético de Madrid and that the operation could be closed for 10 or 15 million euros.
