This Wednesday, it was confirmed that Juan Carlos Restrepo, the stepfather of Colombian midfielder James Rodríguez, has passed away in the town of Ibagué, as reported on Blu Radio.
Restrepo’s death occurred due to an illness from which he had been suffering for some time and which gradually affected his body. However, according to some versions known through the media, it was mentioned that the Colombian football star did not closely monitor his stepfather’s status.
It has long been known to the public mind that Juan Carlos was the person who closely followed James’ training process when he was an amateur player, before making his debut for Envigado FC and crossing over to world football.
