However, he struggled to live up to his 80 million euros ($94.50 million) price tag and failed to nail down a regular spot in the starting line-up at the Bernabeu. He was loaned out to Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich in 2017 for two seasons. Rodriguez returned for a second spell at Real in July last year but the Colombian found himself on the fringes of the first team yet again, starting only five league games under Zinedine Zidane. At Everton, Rodriguez will be reunited with manager Carlo Ancelotti having previously played and thrived under the Italian at Real.
“James… is a fantastic player with a lot of quality and a lot of ability to make assists for the strikers,” Ancelotti said. “He was really excited to sign and I didn’t spend time to convince him –– he was already convinced.” Rodriguez is Everton’s second major signing in the close-season following the arrival of Brazilian midfielder Allan from Napoli. Everton finished 12th last term and begin their new Premier League campaign with a trip to Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.
