The former Colombian soccer legend was encouraged to qualify for the league where the 10th of the “coffee” team plays. “The James thing is sad. Knowing that when he was barely 30 years old he went to play over there, that league is for retirees. It will be difficult to return to the elite ”declared in the podcast ‘Futvox South America’.

“James can’t play 10 games in a row, or at least in recent years he hasn’t been able to. No team with Champions League aspirations, if they are the protagonist in the leagues, they are going to have a half-machine player”Asprilla said.

“He has an extraordinary talent and with little enough to be in the National Team and with that he is better than several of those who are in the Colombian National Team”concluded the former soccer player.
