This weekend the MX League returns and, with it, it starts a new challenge for James Rodríguez. The Colombian midfielder will play his first game of the Opening 2025 tournament with León, who will receive Atlético San Luis this Sunday at the Nou Camp Stadium.
After an irregular semester, in which he alternated quality flashes with physical problems, James is prepared to assume greater prominence under the technical direction of Eduardo Berizzo. Not only will it be its premiere in the season, but also in a special weekend in the personal: the Cucuteño celebrated its 34 years, a coincidence that reinforces the motivation to start with good foot.
Since his arrival in León earlier this year, James has played 17 official games, in which he scored two goals and distributed six assists, adding 1,322 minutes. Beyond the statistics, the Colombian showed that, when he achieves continuity, his influence on the collective game is key: vision, filtered passes and tactical reading that raise the level of the equipment.
The objective is now clear: to overcome the instability that marked the last Clausura and fight for the title. James kept training individually during the recess to reach this new stage, and the challenge starts, in front of a San Luis who also seeks to start adding.
The game can be seen by Win Sports and will serve to measure how much Leon has evolved and how much a more settled James can contribute. A new tournament, a new opportunity and, for James, perhaps the time to consolidate its best version in Mexican lands.
