James Rodriguez regrets having left the big European leagues to go to Qatar's Al-Rayyan and is looking forward to returning to top-level competitions. In recent weeks, rumors have been swirling about his possible return to the Spanish La Liga as three teams are really interested in signing him for the upcoming season.

Valencia would be interested in the Colombian playmaker. Gattuso wants creative players in his squad and James would fit the profile of player they are looking for, a man who handles the ball well and has a knack for scoring goals.

Valencia executives have spoken to Jorge Mendes, but at the moment the player's salary is too high to make him an offer, as they would also have to pay Al-Rayyan and their budget does not allow them to do so. Another interesting option would be a loan until the end of the season with some kind of purchase option.

Villarreal is another La Liga team following James’ footsteps. The 'Yellow Submarine' wants to boost its attack in this transfer market as it is one of the positions providing doubt to Unai Emery and would also be a club willing to open its doors to their squad. It would also be necessary to negotiate his salary since they could not assume the millions that he earns in Qatar.

Atletico Madrid have shown interest for James in the past

The Madrid-based club have always been suitors of James, since when he still belonged to Real Madrid and, although now their interest is reduced, El Cholo has always confessed to be in love with his game. The Wanda Metropolitano were on the verge of signing him a few seasons ago, but the operation could not be completed and he ended up leaving for Everton after finishing his contract with Los Merengues. They would be willing to open their doors for him.
