Former Real Madrid and Monaco attacker James Rodriguez is in transfer limbo once again after his contract with Olympiacos was terminated after eight months of joining the club.
The 2014 World Cup star joined the Greek club at the start of the 2022-23 season and made 23 appearances. During his eight-month stay at the club, the 31-year-old scored five goals and provided six assists before his contract was terminated.
With his contract terminated, Rodriguez became a free agent and could sign for any club this summer. However, the midfielder has not played since February due to an injury.

But according to Spanish publication AS, he could be soon seen in action, with Turkish giants Galatasaray and Besiktas already in touch with him over a possible transfer.
The club announced the termination with a tweet: “Olympiacos FC and James Rodriguez have decided to terminate their cooperation. 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.”
Since leaving Real Madrid, Rodriguez has seen his career nosedive badly, with spells in Everton, Al-Rayyan and Olympiacos following since. However, the Colombian would hope he soon signs a deal with either which would allow him to return to the pitch.
