Interested clubs
A few weeks ago, the version about the interest that football in Turkey would have for James to go to his league began to take hold.
If in the past there was an option for him to go to Galatasaray, where Falcao García played, the team that would now go for the Colombian is Besiktas.
Turkish media have reported that Besiktas, one of Turkey’s greats, already has James in his portfolio and now, after his departure from the Greek club, he would firm his intentions to take him as a free agent.
Besiktas was said to be planning a meeting with members of GestiFute, the sports management company run by Jorge Mendes, James’ agent, to discuss the matter.
It was the Turkish outlet ‘Fotomac’ who told these details, before James’ departure from Olympiacos was confirmed.
However, while the Turkey theme is woven, other versions have been around the future of the Colombian player.
It is no secret that Brazilian soccer has been looking for him for a while, Botafogo tried at the time, but James refused.
Other clubs would be interested. At the time there was talk of Flamengo and Atlético Mineiro, who looked for him before he left for Greece.
Now, while his departure from Olympiacos was cooking, the versions from Brazil are increasing, where there is also talk of teams like Fluminense and Palmeiras.
The option of the MLS is not ruled out, a destination that has always seduced the Colombian. In the past, Inter Miami showed interest in him without being able to sign him.
