Real Madrid officially announces James Rodriguez, Colombia No10, as a part of their team. The World Cup Golden Boot winner is the fourth most expensive player in the history, after the football club signed him for £60 million or $102 million.
The World Cup top scorer is now starting a 6- year- contract with Real Madrid, and he was unveiled last Tuesday.
Madrid president Florentino Perez personally welcomed his newest purchase, and compared him to the late Alfredo Di Stefano, who was also a Colombian player.
James said: 'I hope to win many titles here, Hala Madrid,' entreating the club's official chant.
Also, a statement from Real Madrid read: 'Real Madrid have reached an agreement with Monaco for the transfer of James Rodriguez, who will join the club for the next six seasons.
'The player will be presented today, Tuesday 22 July, at 20:00 (Spanish time), in the Santiago Bernabeu's presidential box.
'Following that, James Rodriguez will take his first steps on the Santiago Bernabeu's pitch wearing the Real Madrid shirt and will attend the media in the press room.'
Even after the unveiling and all the dollars, Rodriguez remains humble when he said this:
'The numbers mean nothing to me. I just want to help make history and bring joy to the Madrid fans.
'This is a club which is used to winning and I'm prepared mentally and physically to do so. It is a pleasure to be among so many stars and I'm sure I'll learn a lot from everyone.'
'I've suffered a lot to get here and when you do that then it tastes so much better.
'I will never forget this day. I hope to work hard, to train well, and to experience a lot of joy here.
'I know I am under a lot of pressure, but I am happy to face it.'
