🤔 Will James Rodríguez wear the No 10? His possible squad number | OneFootball

After completing his first training session with Atlético Nacional, James Rodríguez spoke for the first time about the possibility of wearing the number '10' shirt. The midfielder from Cúcuta acknowledged the historic association with that number, although he downplayed the choice.

“What matters is being on the pitch”

"When you think of James, you think of the '10', but if I can't play with that one, there's no problem. What matters is being out there on the pitch," said the midfielder. The number currently belongs to Edwin Cardona, so the Verdolaga board is working with Dimayor to authorize the change in numbering.

Tentative date for the long-awaited debut

Regarding his Liga BetPlay debut, the coaching staff led by Lucas González is targeting next Wednesday, September 16, against Inter in Bogotá, ruling out his immediate presence in this weekend’s match.
