Shirt number, presentation... Details of James Rodríguez's arrival at São Paulo
Just a matter of a few hours, fan! The São Paulo team, led by football coach Rui Costa, is in Colombia to arrange the signing of 32-year-old star James Rodríguez, for two years with the Morumbi club. The plans are to announce the player on Friday (28). And other sectors of the club are working to announce and detail the biggest Tricolor signing of the season. From the player's point of view, success already seems likely. James used his social media to create a cryptic post. In the smiling photos, the midfielder wrote the caption 'now comes the good news', in addition to liking the many messages from the fans who welcomed her and promised to pick her up at the airport.

It has been determined that Tricolor wants to officially announce a new reinforcement on Friday so that they can present him to the fans on Sunday (30), in the Bahia game for the Brazilian Championship, at 11am (Brasília time), at Morumbi. More than 49 thousand tickets were sold for the fight. Therefore, the player's medical examination may be carried out in Medellín, where he lives, and communicated to the São Paulo authorities. And this must be the only tricolor-inspired 'party' for the player's arrival, without playing since leaving Olympiacos, from Greece, at the beginning of August. The main event, such as presentations by Daniel Alves and Luís Fabiano, is not allowed. Another point of internal debate is what jersey number James should wear. Colombia has the number 10 as its personal brand. He even used it at Real Madrid. In São Paulo it is currently owned by Luciano. For Lance!, sources promised that the striker is willing to give it to his new teammate, as long as he keeps 11, his preferred number, currently worn by Rodrigo Nestor, who may leave the club due to an offer from Zenit, in Russia. If the equation cannot be solved, the plan is to use two digits that add up to ten, such as 19, 37, 46, or 55. Second Lance! revealed this Thursday (27), the opportunity to play in Brazilian football, the most competitive and prestigious league in South America, close to family and business, and the opportunity to play with Rafinha again were some of the reasons why James Rodríguez will leave his contract with São Paulo on track. + Check out the games and results of the Brasileirão-23 divisions in the LANCE table!
