James Rodriguez is reportedly becoming an unlikely candidate for Serie B side Avellino, following an agreement he has reportedly made with Atletico Nacional in Colombia. Earlier this week, there were rumors in Italy that the 2014 World Cup Golden Boot winner was in talks with Avellino, managed by Alessandro Nesta, to join the Italian second division team.
However, according to transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio, Rodriguez has turned down two offers from the Serie B outfit as he continues his search for other opportunities. Di Marzio claims that a deal between Rodriguez and Atletico Nacional is already in place, with formal steps expected to follow soon. Despite this, Avellino has not given up hope on signing Rodriguez, as the 35-year-old had initially shown willingness to consider the club's offer.
However, Di Marzio acknowledges that the chances of a move to the Serie B side have significantly decreased over the past few days.
