James Rodríguez Hospitalised with Severe Dehydration After France Friendly

Colombia captain James Rodríguez spent three days under medical care in Minnesota after suffering severe dehydration following last week’s friendly against France. According to a statement from the Colombian Football Federation, Rodríguez was admitted for preventive monitoring and recovery. Officials clarified that his condition was non-sports-related and unrelated to any musculoskeletal injury. The 34-year-old, who joined Minnesota United earlier this year, is now back home and showing steady improvement. He is set to lead Colombia at this summer’s World Cup in Group K alongside Portugal, DR Congo and Uzbekistan. “We wish James a speedy and full recovery,” the federation added in its update.
