From Brazil in the last few hours they have been releasing important information, recently, Globo Esporte stated that the breakdown of relations between player and club began a couple of months ago. “The relationship with the Dorival Junior committee was not the best,” they stated regarding the relationship with the strategist who is now part of the Brazil National Team.

In addition to that, the aforementioned media added what was the game that marked the first chapter of the ‘battle’ between James and São Paulo: “The midfielder was dissatisfied with being substituted at half-time in the classic once morest Palmeiras, at the Allianz Parque. At that time, São Paulo was losing 3-0, but the match would end 5-0″.

Thiago Carpini arrived at the São Paulo club a couple of months ago, precisely with that change, the ’10’ of the Colombian National Team expected differential treatment, however, that this new coach also told him that he would not go as one of the first basemen in the Brazilian Super Cup, made him no longer tolerate the treatment once morest him.

“Being left on the bench once morest Palmeiras, on Sunday, in Belo Horizonte, was the limit. “James refused to travel as an unrelated athlete, which caused embarrassment, since even injured people, like Rodrigo Néstor, accompanied the delegation,” they indicated.

Finally, Globo Esporte adds that a difference in money would be added to the reasons for his departure from Brazil: “James renounces what he would have received until the end of the contract, in June 2025, something close to R$ 16 million, but “The footballer demands what São Paulo owes him: he estimates a value of 2 million euros (around R$ 10.6 million), something that is not confirmed.”

Abysmal drop in James’ value

Since then, the player undertook an extensive journey that led him to be part of teams such as Everton (England), Al Rayyan (Qatar), Olympiacos (Greece) and Sao Paulo (Brazil).

Despite having been among the most valuable players, he is currently valued at $5 million, a figure significantly less than what Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez paid for his services in 2014.
