Something simply has to change...
It’s time to completely overhaul football’s ridiculous transfer loan system.
The confirmation of James Rodriguez’s move from Real Madrid to Bayern Munich earlier today – on a TWO-YEAR loan deal, no less – is the latest example of how insane the situation has become.
In case you’re unaware, and I’m sure you’re not, the Colombian was one of European football’s most sought after signatures following his performances at the 2014 World Cup finals in Brazil and, after that tournament, he moved to the Bernabeu for an undisclosed fee largely accepted to be around the £70million mark.
