Fußball wrote:Well, there are 2 explanations if this truly happens.
1. It's a Mendez money coup and has nothing to do with the sporting aspect, something like Altintop to Real Madrid. Mourinho and Falcao share the same agent.
2. Falcao isn't actually finished. He initially struggled after his injuries and without preseason preparations in a new team under a manager who is famous for not getting the best out of strikers in his very striker-unfriendly system which led to loss of confidence and some uncharacteristically poor showings by Falcao.
I'm going with the second option, and I can't help but feel Falcao is a significant reinforcement for Chelsea.

It didn't do anything for Torres, the poor block tried everything.
Hopefully the haircut symbolizes a huge paycut.

Monaco shouldn't take the deal unless it includes Remy going the other way imo .

Re: Radamel Falcao close to Chelsea move
Monaco don't want the wages of Remy. Martial is going to be the starting CF and they want to develop De Carvalho that they bought from Fluminese in the winter of last season (he's 23). You also have Lacina Traore and Aboubakar on the squad.
Monaco doesn't need a CF really. They are going to go after a LB, wingers and CMs however as they are expected to also sell Kurzawa, Carrasco and Moutinho. Since their Sporting Director was hand picked by Mendes (as was Jardim btw), i expect them to raid South America and the Portuguese league.

Re: Radamel Falcao close to Chelsea move
http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/jun/16/chelsea-agree-radamel-falcao-loan-deal-monaco
Chelsea have agreed a financial package in principle with Monaco to secure Radamel Falcao on a season-long loan, in a move that could have an impact upon Loïc Rémy’s immediate future with the Premier League champions.
Falcao, currently at the Copa América with Colombia, will make a swift return to English football following his disappointing loan spell at Manchester United last season after a fortnight of talks between his agent Jorge Mendes and the Chelsea hierarchy. The 29-year-old striker managed just four goals in 29 appearances for Louis van Gaal’s side and a solitary shot on target in his final 12 Premier League games. United duly passed up the chance to make the deal permanent for £43.2m.
Chelsea would have a similar option next summer, albeit for nearer £35m, having agreed to pay a loan fee in the region of £4m for the forward. Falcao earns £265,000 a week under the terms of his contract at Stade Louis II, a figure United covered last term, though it is understood he will waive a proportion of that salary to move to the Premier League champions. Chelsea’s highest earner at present is Eden Hazard on around £200,000 a week and the new arrival is unlikely to match that salary.
Falcao’s time at Old Trafford was initially hampered by injury, though once available he rarely looked the same powerhouse who had so thrived at Porto and Atlético Madrid – not least at Chelsea’s expense in the 2012 Uefa Super Cup, when he scored a hat-trick – before suffering a serious cruciate knee ligament injury with Monaco which ruled him out of last summer’s World Cup finals. His four United goals came against Everton, Aston Villa, Stoke and Leicester, the last on 31 January, and his campaign rather petered out in frustration.

Yet José Mourinho, who shares the same agent as Falcao and has lost Didier Drogba this summer, impressed upon the Chelsea board his belief that he can coax the best from the forward. He went public in his admiration for the Colombian in an interview last week with DirecTV Sports. “I know him very well from when I was in Portugal and Spain,” he said. “For a player of his level and quality, it’s a real shame that people in England think Falcao is the player who was at Manchester United.
“I don’t have a close relationship with him, but it hurts me because he’s a great player. If there’s any way for me to help the English people to get to know the real Falcao, that would give me pleasure. But I don’t do the negotiations. I just tell the board, my club, the players I’m interested in.”
Talks between Mendes, Monaco and the Chelsea director Marina Granovskaia, who oversees their transfer and contract negotiations, are now understood to have led to an agreement in principle even if the player is likely to require extensive medical checks once Colombia’s participation in the Copa América in Chile is over. The Ligue 1 club could still seek to take players on loan from Chelsea as part of the arrangement having declared an interest in the teenage Belgium Under-21 international Charly Musonda and the Croatia midfielder Mario Pasalic.
The completion of the deal for Falcao would leave Rémy contemplating his future at Stamford Bridge, as the France striker had been seeking reassurances he would receive more playing time next year before Euro 2016. The £10.5m arrival from Queens Park Rangers started only six top-flight games last season, scoring seven goals, and has attracted interest from West Ham, Crystal Palace and Lyon, from whose academy he graduated.
Palace, now overseen by Rémy’s former manager at Newcastle, Alan Pardew, finished 10th last season and hope to add two or three eye-catching, established talents to their squad. They have spoken to Paris Saint-Germain about another former Newcastle player, the midfielder Yohan Cabaye, and would be prepared to offer the striker, who earns around £80,000 a week at present, a competitive wage.
Whether they could meet the fee required to prise Rémy away, however, remains to be seen though the fact Chelsea could potentially follow up Falcao’s arrival with a £43m move for Atlético’s Antoine Griezmann could hasten his departure.

Falcao scoring would just result in a Mourinho/Hazard/Oscar/Cesc spinoff praise & jubilation thread.
It's a win-win situation for me.

Muorinho is able to bench him all year long and use him less than Rémy lol. Dude bought Cuadrado just because they cold afford him. At least Falcao is out of monaco and is going to play the CL .

This is your proof? Him playing random 20 minute outings with him doing dog work outside the box?
Shame he is going to your terrible club, he doesnt stand a chance of returning to his old form now.
