Former Real Madrid star James Rodríguez in talks for shock MLS move

  • On Tuesday, Minnesota United entered talks to sign James Rodríguez this winter, with The Athletic, Pioneer Press and ESPN reporting the discussions.
  • Needing a playmaker after several exits, the Loons have reason to pursue Rodríguez, who needs regular minutes to prepare for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, according to reports.
  • Rodríguez has been a free agent since December after leaving Club León and has been without a club since then, despite starring for Real Madrid and Bayern Munich with international honours.
  • Signing Rodríguez could be the biggest signing in Minnesota United's history and revive the Loons' disappointing offseason, a source reported.
  • The potential signing follows MLS's pattern of landing former European stars such as David Beckham, Lionel Messi, and Thomas Müller, adding another chapter to Rodríguez's nomadic career.
