James Rodriguez once played for Real Madrid. |
In an interview on the show "Los Amigos de Edu" on March 17, Rodriguez chose the 3 best players at Real Madrid right now: Kylian Mbappe, Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Junior.
The midfielder then went on to rate himself above Bernabeu legends Luka Modric, Toni Kroos and Zinedine Zidane. Rodriguez said: "Zidane is great, he won the World Cup at his peak, but I would still choose myself."
Rodriguez's comments immediately received mixed reactions on social media. One fan wrote: "Where is he in Real Madrid's series of Champions League titles?" Another account commented: "Funny, who does James think he is?" Another fan commented: "I only remember him from his beautiful goals, it's lame to compare him with other legends in midfield."
In another development, Rodriguez predicted that Bellingham could win the Ballon d'Or in the future. The Colombian star said: "I scored more than 14 goals and 15 assists in my first year at Real Madrid. It was a great time, similar to Bellingham's first season. I like the way he plays. I think he can win the Ballon d'Or."
"In 2014, I finished eighth in the race, ahead of Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Iniesta, Xavi, Suarez and Neymar," said the former Real Madrid star.
After leaving Rayo Vallecano, Rodriguez is now playing for Club Leon in the Mexican league. The team is currently second in the table, one point behind leaders Club America.
