Colombian attacking midfielder James Rodríguez has asked Rayo Vallecano, who owns his contract, to terminate the deal early this winter.

The 33-year-old performer spent only half a year in the Spanish team, after being transferred from Brazilian Sao Paulo as a free agent.

Currently, the football player’s representatives are actively looking for a place for him to continue his career.

One of the options was the Colombian club Junior de Barranquilla, however, in an interview the day before, the club’s majority shareholder Fuad Char summed up the disappointing results of the three-day meeting with the player.

“We have evaluated the offers for some of the contracts that James Rodriguez already has. I have come to the conclusion that these clubs have much higher offers, almost double what we can offer.

So, I can say that this operation failed.

We talked and talked about these numbers and it was a bit tactless of the player’s representatives to wait until we got to them, only for them to then say that our offer was too far from the others.

They did not tell me exactly which club offered such money. I think they should have been a little more open, more open, with us. I’m really hurt by all the expectations people have because I really thought we were very close to signing this.

I was told that James has to make a decision the next day, but I think that everything is over between us,” the club representative said.

Mexico’s Leon, who will play at the Club World Cup this summer, are also reportedly interested in the midfielder.
