Jese Rodriguez is the perfect example of a football reporter. The 31-year-old showed a lot of promise during his early years as a Real Madrid player, but since leaving for Paris Saint-Germain in 2016, he has been on the move very regularly.
In 2023 alone, Jese played for three clubs: Ankaragucu, Sampdoria and Coritiba. He left the latter in December, but since then he had not been able to find a new club – he has now, and it is in a place where many expected less.
It has been confirmed that Jese has signed for Johor Darul Ta'zim. A contract agreement was reached, and the first Real Madrid wonderkid can now continue his career with the Malaysian giants.
Johor Darul Ta'zim has a lot of pedigree in Asian football as they are regulars in the AFC Champions League. Jese will be hoping he can put his stamp on the club, and his new team-mates will certainly value his experience.
