Rodriguez was once considered among the best young talents in the world and is currently a versatile player who can play in any position ranging from the midfield to the front line. The 26-year-old has abilities to create chances for his teammates and his role as an advanced playmaker is further honed by his pace, vision and technical skills.
In the 2017-18 Bundesliga season, he made 23 appearances for Bayern Munich and was a key member of the squad that won the title by scoring 7 goals and providing 11 assists.
In Colombia's opening game against Japan, James came on as a substitute in the second half and also got booked. In this critical fixture against Poland, James is expected to step up and deliver for his side.
