James Rodríguez is close to returning to European football through Avellino, a club that plays in Serie B, the second tier of Italian football. The Italian club is in advanced negotiations with the Colombian player to secure his signing.
The 33-year-old attacking midfielder became known in Portugal during his time at FC Porto, where he stood out before moving to Spanish football and later to Brazil. The possible transfer to Avellino would represent a surprising return to Europe for the player who has accumulated international experience throughout his career.
Avellino, a club based in the Italian city of the same name, intends to strengthen their squad with a player of international renown like Rodríguez. Negotiations between the parties are underway and point to an imminent agreement that could be announced shortly.
This transfer, if completed, would mark a new chapter in James Rodríguez's career, as he seeks to relaunch his professional trajectory in a European league less prominent than those where he previously played.
