James Rodriguez‘s father believes his son is paying the price of being famous, and has accused Spanish press for destroying his confidence.
“[Times like these] are tough and as a parent you want the best for your children,” Wilson Rodriguez told Caracol Radio.
“These are hard times, but that’s football and slumps are normal.
“Big teams are very demanding and there’s little room for forgiveness, but all their players are top professionals and so is James.
“It hurts to hear things [about James’ private life] which aren’t true, but that’s the price of fame.
“He should be supported in these difficult situations, but I’m calm because this will pass.

“In the League, there are no opportunities [for the title] left, so [Madrid] must focus on the Champions League and fight for it.”
