Lionel Messi x James Rodriguez?! Inter Miami have their sights set on signing ex-Real Madrid playmaker in January as David Beckham plots rebuild following MLS play-off heartache

<p>Colombia international James - who was <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/james-rodriguez-copa-america-mvp-colombia/blt46ee3bb7d6f0c6b2" target="_blank">named player of the tournament at the 2024 Copa America</a> as Messi and Argentina defended their continental crown on U.S. soil - is enduring a <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/napoli-signing-diego-maradona-james-rodriguez-formula-1-driver-rayo-vallecano-ex-real-madrid-return-la-liga/blt57fadf8549253357" target="_blank">difficult time back in Spain with Rayo Vallecano</a>.</p><div class="affiliate-button-container theme-1" data-name="Apple TV"><div class="affiliate-button"><img class="logo" height="40" width="72" src="https://eu-images.contentstack.com/v3/assets/bltcc7a7ffd2fbf71f5/blt2de198b67da95a2e/65709d2436cf7d0407034ef9/Apple_TV.png" style="width: 72;height: 40;"><span class="affiliate-text">Get the MLS Season Pass today!</span></div><a href="https://tv.apple.com/channel/tvs.sbd.7000?itsct=goal_mls&amp;itscg=30200&amp;at=1010l39UY" class="affiliate-button-link" target="_blank">Stream games now</a></div>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The former Real Madrid playmaker returned to Europe on the back of his Copa exploits, but regular game time has been in short supply after <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/james-rodriguez-heading-back-madrid-colombia-star-agreement-join-la-liga-club-2024-copa-america/blt4110c70d890a8d68" target="_blank">opting for a second stint in the Spanish capital</a>. James has seen just 136 minutes of La Liga action this season, with only one start made in top-flight competition.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>There are suggestions that his one-year contract could be terminated at the start of 2025, allowing the 33-year-old to find another new challenge. According to <a href="https://x.com/ferchohurtado22/status/1859950092884828185 " target="_blank">reports in the States</a>, as covered by <a href="https://www.estadiodeportivo.com/futbol/rayo-vallecano/proximo-equipo-james-rodriguez-20241128-472764.html " target="_blank"><em>Estadio Deportivo</em></a>, James is registering on Inter Miami’s radar.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>The Herons are plotting a rebuild on the back of <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/explained-how-atlanta-united-stun-lionel-messi-dream-team-send-crazy-inter-miami-squad-crashing-out-mls-cup/blt9e9a873e8c1dc943" target="_blank">suffering MLS Cup play-off heartache in 2024</a> against Atlanta United, with David Beckham and the club’s board looking for more proven performers at the very highest level.</p>

TELL ME MORE

<p>James would fit into that category and may be offered the opportunity to join Messi, Luis Suarez and Sergio Busquets in Florida. There is also talk of Inter Miami still keeping a close eye on the likes of World Cup winner Angel Di Maria and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/inter-miami-neymar-transfer-disaster-warning-brazilian-superstar-reforming-msn-lionel-messi-luis-suarez-mls/blt0d245bc1e0d88ad2" target="_blank">Brazil international superstar Neymar</a>.</p>
