Radamel Falcao pens new deal to take buyout clause to €45 million – Portuguese Primeira Liga News
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Porto-c39186, to take his buyout clause to a whopping €45 million.
The Columbian International was in scintillating form for the Portistas last season, where he netted an incredible 39 times in only 42 outings. His exploits hauled the club to an unprecedented quadruple, for which he has been rewarded with a new and improved
contract.
His goalscoring feats have attracted the attention of several suitors and he is believed to be on the radar of top clubs in Europe including Chelsea and Real Madrid, while Atletico Madrid are also looking to step up their interest as well.
Where the Blues and Los Blancos have enough financial power to battle for his signature, Atletico Madrid lack the same monetary backing as their rivals. But they are also the ones who require Falcao’s services the most due to the impending departure of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sergio-c33030
Aguero, who has set his heart on a move away from the club.
Aguero has been prolific in the Spanish La Liga and has never fallen below the 20-goal mark for the last four seasons. The 23-year-old’s prowess and accuracy in front of goal has skyrocketed his value and many clubs are rumoured to have tabled multimillion
deals for him. Atletico have also given into the Argentine’s demand and will reportedly accept proposals in the range of €45 million.
With the sale of the diminutive Argentine, Los Colchoneros will be able to raise the necessary amount to trigger Falcao’s buyout clause, purchasing a nearly man-to-man replacement, but they also face stiff competition from their cross-town rivals, Real Madrid.
Los Meringues are in a need of proven goalmachine as they lack quality options besides Gonzalo Higuain and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Emmanuel-Adebayor-c12526 and
Brazilian prodigy http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Neymar-c27639, besides Radamel Falcao.
Despite the opposition lodging interest, Chelsea are the ones touted as the favourites to land the Coffee Grower’s International because they have Andre Villas-Boas as their manager. The Portuguese tactician took charge of the Londoners after spending a
season at Estadio da Dragao, where he won every competition he entered.
Falcao has already acknowledged Villas-Boas as his mentor and would be enticed at the prospect of working under his tutelage once again.
However, the English outfit have a plethora of attacking options with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fernando-Torres-c13707. With the Ivorian and Frenchman nearing the end of their glittering careers, however, Roman Abramovich will again be tempted
to divulge in another spending spree.
While a move remains highly unlikely now for Radamel Falcao, given that he has accepted a new contract with the Dragons, a staggering €45 million offer should still be enough to lure him out of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Portugal-c2984.
