According to Spanish media outlet El Nacional, James Rodriguez, due to his outstanding performance in the Copa America, is likely to return to La Liga with Real Sociedad.
Prior to the Copa America, news of James Rodriguez’s contract termination with Sao Paulo was widespread, but it did not affect the player. Currently, Rodriguez has delivered an impressive tally of 1 goal and 5 assists in the four Copa America matches he has played, helping Colombia reach the semi-finals of the tournament. Colombia will face Uruguay in the semi-finals.
It is precisely because of his excellent performance in the Copa America that James Rodriguez has re-entered the sights of top European league clubs. Real Sociedad is one of the suitors for Rodriguez, as they are likely to lose Mikel Merino and Martin Zubimendi during the summer transfer window, thus they are eager to reinforce their midfield. With his La Liga experience and excellent form, James Rodriguez is a prime choice for Real Sociedad.
