FC Porto confirm Atletico Madrid's offer for Radamel Falcao and Ruben Micael – Liga Sagres News
Portuguese giants, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Porto-c39186, have finally confirmed that Atletico Madrid have made an offer for Radamel Falcao and Ruben Micael. The club have excluded the duo from the squad that faces Gil Vicente in the Primeira Liga.
Atletico Madrid have been at last credited with making an official bid for the services of Radamel Falcao and Ruben Micael after weeks of speculation that Falcao could be on his way to Vicente Calderon.
Los Colchoneros have been searching for a perfect replacement for Sergio Aguero, ever since his €35.6 million move to Manchester City, and had identified Falcao as the player to fill the Argentine’s boots.
Backed by funds acquired from Aguero’s sale, the Madrid outfit made three offers for the Colombian, with two of them being player-plus-cash deals. However, Porto refused to budge and remained adamant that they would not sell their most prized asset.
The transfer saga was again thrown wide open as Falcao himself revealed that he would be open to a move to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011 and that it could help further his career.
With their target also eager to complete the transfer, Atletico have reportedly made a €50 million offer for his and Ruben Micael’s services. In light of the bid, the Portistas have made a statement that the Mattress-Makers are indeed interested in landing
Falcao and Micael contrary to the comments of club president Nuno Pinto da Costa.
"Porto would like to communicate that we have received an offer from Atletico Madrid with an eye on the acquisition of the rights of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Radamel-Falcao-c30276 and Ruben Micael, which is currently being considered by the club," the press release read.
Now that both parties have made expletory talks, it looks like the real negotiations to decide the fate of one of Europe’s hottest properties are underway.
Falcao’s agent, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mendes-c25206, has already been in contact with Atletico and with his convincing skills will easily be able to finally to put an end to weeks of reports, and hopefully engineer a move for his client to the Spanish capital in the upcoming weeks.
