Olympiacos terminate James Rodriguez’s contract with 2 months of the season to go

Olympiacos have terminated the contract of former Real Madrid midfielder James Rodriguez. The 31-year-old scored five goals for the Greek side, but hasn’t played since February due to an injury. And now, the club has announced that they will not continue with him.

“Olympiakos FC and James Rodríguez have decided to terminate their cooperation,” the club said in a statement. “James will always be part of our club and a member of the ‘red-and-white’ family. We want to thank him for his service, and we wish him every success in the future.”

“I would like to thank everyone for all the time that we have spent together,” James tweeted. “Although we are going our separate ways, I feel that I will always be a member and welcomed in the family of the great port Piraeus. I wish all the best to Olympiacos and every success in the future.”

The Colombian has had a sharp decline since leaving Real Madrid. He joined Bayern Munich, where he won five trophies before joining Everton. Rodriguez had an impressive start to his first season under Carlo Ancelotti before moving to Al Rayyan the next year. 

He joined Olympiacos at the start of the season, and is now a free agent again. A move to Turkey could be on the cards for him, but he will have to wait until the summer transfer window to be registered and to play.
