Real Madrid Eyes Radamel Falcao to Bolster Attack Following James Rodriguez Signing
Real Madrid is reportedly planning to further strengthen its squad this summer by pursuing the signing of Colombian striker Radamel Falcao from AS Monaco, according to reliable sources cited by Spanish newspaper ABC.
The report suggests that Monaco has agreed to a loan deal worth €12 million, with an option to buy Falcao permanently for €33 million at the end of the season. However, Real Madrid is exercising caution, closely monitoring the striker’s recovery from a serious knee injury sustained during recent Monaco friendlies before committing to the deal.
If completed, the acquisition of Falcao would add firepower to Real Madrid’s frontline alongside recent signing James Rodriguez, positioning the club strongly for the upcoming campaign — particularly in their ongoing rivalry with FC Barcelona.
The move signals Real Madrid’s intent to shake up the transfer market and challenge their historic rivals with a potent attacking line-up.
