James Rodriguez Joins Bayern On Loan

Bayern Munich have signed Real Madrid forward James Rodriguez on a two-year
loan deal with the option to buy.

The 25-year-old, who signed a six-year contract at Real after joining from Monaco for £71m in July 2014, made just 22 appearances in La Liga last season.

"Signing James Rodríguez was our coach Carlo Ancelotti's biggest wish," said Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge.

"We're delighted we've been able to complete this transfer."
