La realidad de finales de marzo e inicios de abril del año 2025 es clara y adversa contra el León de Guanajuato, estando descalificados del Mundial de Clubes 2025 debido a lo que llaman ‘multipropiedad’, por pertenecer al Grupo Pachuca y con participación del Club Pachuca en el mismo certamen. Sin embargo, el equipo que llevó a James Rodríguez para reforzar su plantel para este evento sin precedentes, buscará todo lo posible por recuperar su cupo y llegaría hasta el TAS (Tribunal de Arbitraje Deportivo).
En este mismo periodo de tiempo, la Selección Colombia de Néstor Lorenzo perdió el gran juego que mostraba hasta antes de perder la final de Copa América 2024 contra Argentina. Y posteriormente empezaron a aparecer malos resultados, pues entre septiembre del 2024 a marzo del 2025 solo sumó 2 empates, 2 victorias y 4 derrotas, todos esos encuentros fueron válidos por Eliminatorias al Mundial 2026.
Además, los siguientes partidos con ‘la Tricolor’ se jugarán en la fecha FIFA de la primera semana de junio del 2025 y, si antes se pensaba que se podía prescindir de James por el buen funcionamiento del grupo completo de jugadores, ahora se ha comprometido la clasificación mundialista y no sería lógico que el capitán no esté en el equipo.
¿Cuál es el problema para James Rodríguez con León y Colombia por el Mundial de Clubes 2025?
Mientras se soluciona el tema del León, si FIFA reversa la decisión de descalificarlos, si el TAS lleva el caso a un buen término para los de Guanajuato o si deciden mantener el derecho adquirido de ‘la Fiera’, el tema de James Rodríguez va a estar en el aire. Aunque el propio futbolista se manifestó públicamente para criticar la decisión de las autoridades y pedir respeto por su equipo, si juega el Mundial de Clubes 2025, estaría recién llegado de los partidos de Colombia con Perú en casa y con Argentina en condición de visitantes.
Las razones son simples y claras, entendiendo que el calendario de FIFA anunció que las fechas de partidos de selecciones internacionales se pueden jugar entre el lunes 2 y el martes 10 de junio del 2025. Así, Colombia tendría que jugar con ‘la Tricolor’ el jueves 5 en Barranquilla contra los peruanos teniendo que viajar a suelo gaucho para jugar el martes 10 del mismo tercer mes del año.
Pero si se compara con la programación del Mundial de Clubes 2025, que ya tiene grupos, partidos y todo definido, se sabe que los partidos empiezan el 14 de junio con el estreno del Inter Miami (Estados Unidos) contra Al-Ahly (Egipto) y la final se jugará en el MetLife Stadium el 13 de julio. Y si hablamos del calendario que se conoció del León, antes del escándalo de la descalificación, el 16 de junio se medirían al Chelsea (Inglaterra), el viernes 20 contra Espérance Sportive (Túnez) y el martes 24 será contra Flamengo (Brasil).
Entonces, el tiempo que James estará con ‘la Tricolor’ jugando por las Eliminatorias 2026, evitará que entrene enfocado y preparando el Mundial de Clubes 2025 con León. Y con los antecedentes de lesiones y desgaste del zurdo nacido en Cúcuta, es un lío grande porque siempre se supo la prioridad del seleccionado nacional, pero recientemente se mostró más que comprometido con el club.
¿James puede jugar el Mundial de Clubes 2025 y también las Eliminatorias al Mundial 2026 en junio?
Se debe aclarar que el reglamento de la FIFA, publicado en octubre del 2024, señala que ningún club está obligado a prestar o ceder a sus jugadores por el tiempo que dure su participación. Se lee en el punto VI, que menciona las “Listas de jugadores y miembros de la delegación”. Y en el Capítulo 22, apartado 5, se indica así: “Durante la competición, no es obligatorio que los clubes participantes en la competición cedan a sus jugadores a los equipos representantes del país para los que pueden ser convocados”.
Para no entender mal y no desinformar a los hinchas y aficionados, el ente máximo del fútbol en el mundo explica que sí deben prestarlos para la fecha FIFA previa: “Para que no haya lugar a dudas, sigue en vigor la obligación de los clubes participantes en la competición de ceder a sus jugadores en el periodo internacional del 2 al 10 de junio de 2025”.
Entonces, el problema será con los tiempos, los viajes, el físico y que no se presente lesiones para el capitán de la Selección Colombia. Pero James Rodríguez, y los demás casos de todos los clubes y seleccionados, deben atender el eventual llamado de su seleccionado nacional de forma obligatoria y después ir con su club a la cita en Estados Unidos.

Minter is likely landing on the injured list, manager Carlos Mendoza said after the New York Mets’ 2-0 win over the Washington Nationals on Saturday.Minter walked off the mound in the middle of an at-bat during the eighth inning because, he said, he felt his triceps tighten.

But I don’t want to get ahead of myself. We gotta wait and see what we are dealing with here.”After throwing the ninth pitch of his outing, Minter grimaced, shook his head and walked around the mound. He exited with the […]
Ravens 2025 NFL Draft Takeaways: A huge class, and one controversial pick
Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta walked briskly into the auditorium at the Baltimore Ravens facility on Saturday night and acknowledged the obvious: “It was a long day.”The Ravens finished an 11-man draft class Saturday by making eight selections and two trades, including one with the New York Jets that improved their positioning on Day 3 of the 2026 Draft.AdvertisementAfter selecting Georgia safety Malaki Starks, Marshall edge rusher Mike Green and LSU offensive lineman Emery Jones Jr. over the first two days, the Ravens used Saturday to add two more offensive linemen, two cornerbacks, a defensive lineman, an inside linebacker, a wide receiver/return specialist and a kicker.When it was (mercifully) over, DeCosta had checked pretty much every box and added to every spot where the Ravens had an obvious need. It will take a few years before you can appropriately and […]

Fantasy football 2025 NFL Draft player grades: Every pick from Cam Ward to Brashard Smith and more
The 2025 NFL Draft might be done, but the excitement is still bubbling over. It’s time for NFL draft grades for fantasy football. If you haven’t seen this piece from past years, each player gets two grades. The first draft grade is redraft-only value (2025). The second is the player’s dynasty grade/potential.AdvertisementThe draft grades are weighted in tiers of sorts. A’s are your stars — players who can or will become a No. 1 at their position (RB1, TE1, etc.). For B’s, we’re talking about second and some third-tier starters in all leagues. When we get to C’s, those are fringe starters, maybe some boom/bust plays, etc. D’s are waiver wire players with maybe some Best Ball or the rare bye week/matchup play potential. Any player graded lower is a non-factor in fantasy.For those wanting to go deeper, you can […]
