Has Real Madrid made a big mistake in letting him go?

Real Madrid reject James Rodriguez is having an exceptional 2017/18 season in Germany with Bayern Munich. He has played a key part in Bayern’s Bundesliga title win and UEFA Champions League semi-finals qualification.

The Columbian international has scored 6 goals and assisted 11 more for Bayern Munich this season. He has been at the heart of Bayern’s attacking play this season and made 2.7 key passes per game in Bundesliga.

He was not highly rated at Real Madrid, but the 26-year-old has reaffirmed his credentials this season as one of the best attacking players in the world. He has every chance to go all the way in the UEFA Champions League as Bayern play Real Madrid in the semi-finals of the competition next week.
