Bayern Munich loaned by Real Madrid for two seasons, the midfielder Colombian will not be preserved. Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has just announced it.
Bayern Munich announces the departure of James Rodriguez!

 It's the end of a long serial in Bavaria. Landed at Bayern Munich in 2017 in the form of a loan with an option to buy, James Rodriguez (27) has made the suspense last for long months. After two rather mixed years with the German giant, the Colombian was at a crucial moment in his career. Bayern had until June 15 to indicate whether he wished or not to keep the South American.

 In the end, despite various announcements indicating everything and its opposite, the champions of Germany will not pay the forty million euros to Real Madrid corresponding to the call option. But not really because they decided it. Bayern Munich President Karl-Heinz Rummenigge confirmed on Tuesday that James Rodriguez told him he did not want the German formation to lift its call option.
"He was with me and let me know, in a private conversation, that he had asked the club not to lift the call option," said Bavarian leader Sport Bild. The first part of the James Rodriguez drama has ended. It remains to be seen where the Colombian will bounce. Still linked to Real Madrid until June 2020, the former Monegasque does not really seem to have room in the Merengues. The door is wide open to the various contenders announced the player (PSG, Juventus, Naples among others).
