After a friendly match between Colombia and France, former Real Madrid star James Rodríguez was hospitalized in the United States for three days due to a health crisis.
The Colombian Football Federation said that the player suffered from acute dehydration following the match, which was played in Maryland and ended in a 3-1 victory for France.
According to Mundo Deportivo, James played only 63 minutes and appeared weary and physically unfit throughout the contest.

The next day, his condition deteriorated due to dehydration, necessitating his transfer to a Minnesota hospital, where he was monitored for 72 hours.
Growing doubts about James Rodríguez’s fitness.
The Colombian Football Federation has acknowledged that James’ condition has recovered, emphasizing that the problem is unrelated to any muscle damage or his football activities.
This circumstance raises doubts regarding James Rodríguez’s readiness to compete in the 2026 World Cup.
James presently plays for Minnesota United, but has only played 39 minutes this season due to injury, and his most recent outing against Croatia before the France match fell short of expectations.
Colombia’s roster, including Portugal, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Uzbekistan, relies heavily on James Rodríguez, the top scorer of the 2014 World Cup.
