Manager Carlos Queiroz announced the 23-man Colombia squad for the Copa América in Brazil next month – including James Rodríguez in spite of concerns about his fitness.


James Rodríguez and Radamel Falcao are the biggest names in the Colombia squad for the Copa América, Carlos Queiroz’s first tournament with los cafeteros. Fitness problems meant that James – Colombia’s star player – was only able to play a full 90 minute match three times with Bayern Munich last season. But those problems have not stopped the 27-year old star being included in the final 23 for the Copa América.
