James Rodríguez has been hospitalized with severe dehydration after Colombia's friendly match against France, the Colombian Football Federation confirmed. The midfielder, who recently joined Minnesota United on a short-term deal, played 63 minutes in Sunday's 3-1 loss in Landover, Maryland. He didn't show symptoms until returning to Minneapolis on Monday, where he was admitted for 72 hours of preventative monitoring alongside Minnesota United's medical team.

The federation emphasized this is unrelated to any prior injuries or football activities. Rodríguez is now recovering at home, though his status for Minnesota's upcoming match against LA Galaxy remains unclear. His recent appearances for the club include two substitute roles this season.
