James Rodriguez Decides to Leave Bayern Munich as German Giants Opt Against Pursuing Permanent Deal

James Rodriguez wants to leave Bayern Munich and the Bundesliga champions will not look to activate his buyout clause this summer.

Rodriguez will be a wanted man this summer if he is granted an exit from Real Madrid, who he is contracted with until 2021. Italian giants ?Juventus have been linked, but a concrete offer from the Serie A side is yet to be submitted.

Despite no indication that Juve have made Rodriquez a priority signing in the summer transfer window, the midfielder would offer rich experience for La Vecchia Signora if they were to pursue his signature.
