James Rodríguez Atlético Nacional verbal agreement

Atlético Nacional and James Rodríguez have a verbal agreement, and Fabrizio Romano is the one who confirmed it. HERE WE GO. So the return to Colombia is happening. But the part worth sitting with is what he walked away from. Avellino, in Serie B, had 1.2 million euros on the table for a single season. That comes out to roughly 100,000 euros per month. Colombian press says Nacional's number is close to that same range. Which means Italy and Medellín were basically level on money, and he still picked home. Now zoom out to 2020, when he left Real Madrid. Everton, Al-Rayyan, Olympiacos, São Paulo, Rayo Vallecano, León, Minnesota United. Seven clubs in six years. He is 35 years old. His last run with the National Team came at the World Cup, where Switzerland sent Colombia out on penalties. And there is a hard deadline attached to all of this: free agents have to be registered in Colombia before Friday. So, a dignified closing for a crack, or the definitive signal that Europe is behind him?
