Radamel Falcao: Atletico Madrid to Chelsea
A deal that has been in the works for a while. The move would suit both parties greatly as it would likely involve a part exchange with an Atletico old boy who is currently down on his luck in London.
The Madrid side knew they couldn’t hold on to Falcao forever, he’s just too good to not be at one of Europe’s elite. There aren’t many who could afford him either, but Chelsea are due one big summer signing every year and have made it clear that the Colombian is their man.
Of course, any move would pave the way for Fernando Torres to return to the club where it all began. The Spaniard has found his Liverpool form tough to replicate at Stamford Bridge and an escape route to familiar surroundings could prove to great to resist.
Quite possibly the best out and out striker in the world right now, the thought of him teaming up with return loanee, Romelu Lukaku would give Chelsea a menacing front line that would strike fear into the hearts of any defence.
A secret meeting between club and player are rumoured to have transpired last week and if that is the case then all bets will most surely be off when the summer arrives.
He will make Chelsea one of the most dangerous sides in the league again as many have feared the club has gone stale. All eyes will be on who the manager will be that harnesses his talent, and whoever it is will have a powerful weapon on his hands.
