Real Madrid’s Attacking Midfielder Anticipates To Bounce Back From Injury For Zinedine Zidane
KEY POINTS
- James Rodriguez is one of Real Madrid's more reliable stars
- An injury in late 2019 has caused James to lose valuable minutes for Real Madrid
- James is determined to bounce back for Zinedine Zidane and the rest of the Los Blancos faithful
The roster of Real Madrid is expected to perform well once the La Liga season returns in full bloom. One of the main players the team is anticipating to rally back is attacking midfielder James Rodriguez.
Per The Real Champs, Real Madrid is looking at James to achieve a stronger campaign in the coming seasons. While it’s expected that he will be recovering from his injuries he sustained from previous seasons, the extended time off due to the break may give him an additional edge. While James will still have to compete for a starting spot from talent such as Fede Valverde and Isco, the potential that he posses is too big to pass up.
There’s still so much more in store for the Columbian star. At just 28 years old, the two-time Champions League winner has suited up in a total of 124 appearances. Throughout these matches, he has scored on 37 separate occasions. To add to these, he’s displayed a full display of his excellent vision on the field with 42 assists. From here he’s already proven his scoring and passing ability as he’s been lauded as a crafty and cerebral player.
Considered as a well-rounded player, James can bounce back from his knee injury if he’s able to make the most of the time off to rest and improve on his physical wellbeing. It will be a challenge but the caliber of someone like James is just what Real Madrid can hope for as they aim to take control of the top spot in La Liga.
The former Spanish Super Cup champion has established that he’s an elite player as he was the 2014 FIFA World Cup’s Top Scorer with six goals.
It will be interesting to see how Real Madrid moves forward with their lineup once the games return. Expectations are high for the team now and developing their younger talent for the future is pivotal for the squad. Players such as James must be ready to be called for bigger minutes in order to show everyone what they’re capable of doing.
