James Rodriguez is determined to win over Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane.

Back in Madrid after two seasons away on-loan with Bayern Munich, James has intimated he wants the chance to prove himself at Real.

Marca says the Colombia captain has turned down squad selection for friendlies with Chile and Algeria.

James has made the decision in order to train at Valdebabas during the international break.

The midfielder is aiming to impress Zidane with this new show of commitment.
