Transfer from the arsenal: Bayern Munich takes the decision of James Rodriguez

James Rodriguez is expected to return to Real Madrid when his two-year loan to Bayern Munich ends on June 15, but the Colombian is expected to return soon.

Marca announced that Bayern had decided not to turn the Colombian's stay in Germany into a permanent stay, while he was arguing with his coach Niko Kovac.

The Croat was apparently unhappy that James had made it clear that he wanted to return to Madrid just one year after the start of his loan, after former Real boss Julen Lopetegui asked him to return to the club. last summer.

This damaged the relationship between the player and the manager and was one of the reasons for Kovac's difficult start at Bayern.

The former Real coach, Zinedine Zidane, had little time for James when he was at the helm. It should probably be replaced this summer, two years before the end of his contract with Madrid.

Arsenal has been strongly linked to Colombia, while Manchester United has been credited with an interest in the past.

Former Bayern midfielder Stefan Effenberg said James had to leave Bayern for career reasons.

"If he's looking at his personal situation in a reasonable way, James needs to understand that what he has to do is leave the club," Effenberg said. T-Online . "He has to play and have fun kicking the ball.

"If he's only allowed to play seven, 10, 12 or 15 minutes, he's lost. In the Bundesliga this season he only played 90 minutes on three occasions – that's not enough. As such, he can not stay with Bayern.

"Even at Real Madrid, he will struggle to get the playing time corresponding to his talent. Maybe he has to go somewhere completely new. Whatever it is, he has to leave Bayern. "
