James Rodríguez surprised this Saturday with his presence in the practice of Independiente Medellín. After living its most convulsive chapter with the Colombian National Team, for his reaction when leaving the call for the Eliminatory games against Peru and Argentina, and the Copa América, the Everton midfielder walked through the Llanogrande headquarters (Rionegro).
“Big surprise in the practice of the #Decano. @ Jamesrodriguez10 visited the Sports Center of the club and shared with all the boys. Welcome always, crack”, posted the DIM on their networks.
There, according to the photographs published by the red club, shared a dialogue with coach Hernán Darío Gómez, shared with the team and posed in different images with all the technical staff and Francisco Maturana himself, a member of the board of directors of Poderoso.
Both Bolillo and Pacho have an important history in the Tricolor and maintain a close relationship with the national coach, Reinaldo Rueda, who made the decision with his collaborators not to have the ’10’ for the two competitions after determining, through medical evaluations, that “he is not at the optimal level of competence”.
James’ response was given through a statement in which he described as a “profound disappointment” to be left out of the call, in addition to ensuring that this determination took him by surprise and caused him pain: “Not receiving the trust of the coaching staff breaks with everything and causes me enormous pain“.
Did you seek Bolillo’s advice? Did you take refuge in the DIM technician? Will Maturana serve as your guide? These are questions that arise after the strange visit of the captain of Colombia to Medellín, as it usually occurs when you are in the country in the Envigado field, the club in which he excelled as a professional.
For now, the powerful institution simply reported what “during practice, @ jamesrodriguez10 chatted with the boys and shared his experiences“.
