The Colombian striker, Radamel Falcao, is on his way to Real Madrid, according to the reports.

Radamel Falcao (28) was a force to be reckoned with while playing for Atletico Madrid, before making a big money move to AS Monaco last summer.

Falcao was sidelined for the big part of last season with a torn ACL, an injury that prevented him playing at the World Cup this summer.

It was always thought that Radamel Falcao was going to end up at Real Madrid, but since he played for the city rivals, Atletico, the direct transfer was not an option.

Real Madrid have liberated some funds recently with the sale of Angel Di Maria to Manchester United and the Falcao purchase could be money very well spent.
