The Europa League winners are likely to lose the services of Radamel Falcao and are eying the Montpellier Herault striker as a possible replacement
Following their 3-0 drubbing of Athletic Bilbao in the final of the Europa League, Atletico Madrid president, Enrique Cerezo said that he will not be talking about what happens the next day as he wants to celebrate the title.
However, at that time, the Madrid supremo was hoping that his side will be able to seal qualification to the Champions League next season. In the last game of the season, Madrid failed to secure a fourth-place finish as Malaga won their last game of the
season.
Penniless and still to pay another 20 million euros for the transfer of Colombian striker http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 are interested in the striker.
While talking about his future, the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Porto-c39186 man said that right now, he is only going to enjoy the victory over Bilbao and that he does not want to think about what’s going to happen in the future.
“I think I want to enjoy what just happened. I don’t think this is the time to talk about that. I saw a beautiful period of my career. I prefer not to give any kind of feedback. I came 10 months back and I’ve already won a title. I think we deserve to enjoy
the moment and not think about next season.”
Despite this, Madrid are already working behind the scenes in order to bring in a new striker to the club. Spanish media claims that the Spaniards are now keeping tabs on http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899 international Olivier Giroud.
The 25-year-old is currently under contract at Ligue 1 side Montpellier Herault who are currently on top of the Ligue 1 standings with just one game left.
The French striker says that he wants to play in the UEFA Champions League and At Madrid will not be able to offer him that. Furthermore, Bayern Munich are reportedly keen on signing the striker which means that the recently-crowned Europa League champions
will have a hard time replacing Falcao with Giroud.
