Liverpool, City and Arsenal were also in contact with Radamel Falcao when he has moved to Man United Transfers

Former Colombian international Radamel Falcao has become one of the best strikers in Europe after scoring a huge amount of goals for FC Porto and Atletico Madrid, and also scored 83 goals in 140 games in total for AS Monaco, to whom he moved in 2013.

In the summer of 2014, while still in the French league, the Santa Marta-born forward joined Manchester United on a loan deal, and after a disappointing four goals and five assists in 29 games, it is fair to say that his attempts in England were unsuccessful.

The player’s father, Radamel Garcia, revealed what went on behind the scenes at the time. He revealed that when he moved to United, there was interest from Juventus, in addition to Premier League sides Liverpool, Manchester City and Arsenal.

“Manchester United is the most important team in England and one of the most powerful financially,”

“Juventus, Manchester City, Liverpool also approached him and Arsenal at the last minute.”

“Fortunately, he ended up at Manchester United, a great team that he led forward.”

In the end, it was a conclusion that the other four teams were glad not to have reached. Manchester United also failed to make the transition to a full transfer, and the following year he was loaned out to Chelsea, where he once again tried his luck in England.

However, he struggled further, scoring just one goal in 12 games, and his career went downhill. He recovered a little at Galatasaray, but his performances did not improve due to his age, and now, at 38, he has returned to his native Colombia to play for Misionarios.

He is approaching retirement, but what will he do in the final stages of his career?
