REVEALED: James departure for Bayern Munich split Real Madrid locker room

James Rodriguez's departure hasn't disappointed everyone inside the Real Madrid locker room.

James quit Real for Bayern Munich this week, moving to Germany on a two season loan.

Diario Gol says the Colombian's exit split the Real squad, with some sorry to see the midfielder leave, while others happy to see him go.

In the pro James camp were Sergio Ramos, Cristiano Ronaldo and Marcelo, along with Keylor Navas. While those happy to see his departure were Gareth Bale, Toni Kroos, Luka Modric and Isco.

At Bayern, James is reunited with coach Carlo Ancelotti, having enjoyed his best form at Real under the Italian.
