James walked out onto the Bernabéu grass for the first time as a Real Madrid player

He posed with his new jersey as the thousands of fans who filled the stands applauded.
James Rodríguez stepped onto the Santiago Bernabéu pitch for the first time as a player for the Whites. Following his presentation in the presidential box, the Colombian put on his new kit and posed for photos in front of the various media outlets in attendance. The midfielder had his first touches of a ball since becoming a member of the Madrid squad and focused his attention on the thousands of fans present in the stands.

The supporters cheered his name and went into raptures whenever he did anything. James, who wore the number 10 on his back, responded in turn to the love shown by the fans - many of whom were fellow Colombians who made their way to the stadium to greet him - by kicking numerous balls into the stands.
