Everton: Benitez pushes James to the exit

Arrived at Everton to join Carlo Ancelotti, James Rodriguez (30 years old, 23 games and 6 goals in the Premier League for the 2020-2021 season) saw his mentor return to Real Madrid. Bad news for the Colombian attacking midfielder, who does not fit into Rafael Benitez’s plans.

According to the Spanish press, the new coach of the Toffees did not appreciate seeing the Cafetero, however deprived of Copa América and which therefore had plenty of time to prepare, come back with extra pounds. A physical delay on his partners crippling for the former Monegasque, who will certainly have to find a way out within a year of the end of his contract.
