One of those who was already present at the concentration on American soil was the midfielder ten of Olympiacos from Greece, James Rodriguez, who ended his participation with the Piraeus club playing 89 minutes and arrived motivated to put on the tricolor shirt in the last game of the year.

James has once again been a fixed name in the squad since the Lorenzo era began and was part of the recent friendlies against Guatemala and Mexico, but now with more playing minutes, he hopes to be the top figure again.
