This Wednesday, James Rodriguez had a live short on Twitch in which he took the opportunity to clarify certain issues that have generated controversy in both England and Colombia in recent weeks.
The Everton creative sent a conciliatory message to the National Team and then wanted to respond to those who criticize his new facet as a streamer.
“For people who are on Twitch, I want them when they come in here not to see it as I’m going to create controversy or controversy, I want them to see it as a space to share with everyone. I want them to see what I do in my free time, free days or free afternoons, with the games that any young person plays“, He expressed.
In this regard he clarified that he will continue to do live on the platform, but now not so often “because I am training.” The idea, he stressed, is to see this space as a channel to relate to his followers and not because of “now what he will say.” On the latter, he thanked “all the people who put on a good vibe.”
On the other hand, it was clear in stating that this new idea of streaming on Twitch does not mean that he is less professional or by far going to put aside his career as a footballer.
“There is time for everything, people. That just because I’m here doesn’t mean I’m out of focus on my job, what I want, and where I want to go. Don’t get me wrong, please“, He has sentenced. He even clarified that he will take advantage of this space to” make many things clear “of his life.
For example he explained that since Monday he returned to training with Everton, after overcoming preventive isolation for having been in contact with a player who tested positive for covid-19. “I’m physically prepared for what’s to come,” he said.
He ended with a clear message: “I’m focused. Remember, being here playing and talking to you doesn’t mean I’m not focused on my work and what I do. There is time to train, to be with the family and I want to take this space to be a little closer. I don’t see anything wrong with that, I don’t know about you guys. I’m not hurting absolutely anyone”.
