Real Madrid cannot have James Rodriguez back either
The new Bayern Munich coach Niko Kovac says James is not going anywhere
No Neymar, no James Rodriguez. Florentino Perez will have to go to the transfer market to get a Cristiano Ronaldo replacement. Bayern Munich are not willing to let the Colombian go back to Madrid - he still has a year on loan at the Allianz at least.
Madrid have been thinking about bringing James back, but Niko Kovac, the new Bayern coach said: "There's no discussion, he'll play with us at least until the end of the 2018-19 season. The loan agreement with Madrid is still valid, later we'll decide if he stays with us longer."
Quotes which confirm what Rummenigge was saying, when he declared: "We are very happy with the player, we have an option and we will execute it."
