‘It’s not the best weather ever!’ - Ancelotti responds to James Rodriguez exit talk at Everton

Carlo Ancelotti has shrugged off reports claiming James Rodriguez feels unsettled in England and is considering a move elsewhere, with the Everton boss seeing nothing to suggest that is the case.

A Colombia international playmaker became a marquee addition for the Toffees during the summer of 2020, with the South American making a move from Real Madrid that saw him reunited with a former Blancos boss.

The 29-year-old has struggled for consistency at times during his debut Premier League campaign, but Ancelotti cannot see him pushing for the exits – although he admits the Merseyside weather could be better.
