Athletico's president told Al Jazeera that Falcao is staying with Madrid until 2016: http://www.aljazeerasport.net/news/football/2013/02/2013211224625174322.html (Arabic)

I doubt that will be the case but I also doubt that they will sell him in this summer.

I don't believe it personally. Only around 1 in 25 transfer rumours regarding us are true. Also if it's been in place since December, why release the info now? Probably because they just need something to talk about. If it is true though our board have sunk to new lows.

It just doesn't seem our style to agree a fee with a club etc. and then just say "he can join in the Summer. you can keep him for the rest of the season" especially given how our season has been going.

It's not exactly the most reputable site in the world reporting this, guys, and I don't really understand how a TV show would get confirmation from clubs or agents for a deal like this.

Falcao would be a good acquisition, but not for the money that's being quoted, and certainly not at the expense of Courtois. If we are going to spend crazy money on a striker, there's really only one that's available that I think is worth it: Cavani. Cavani has a superior work rate to Falcao, better hold up play, and is just as good a scorer. He also does a good job chipping in on defense, something I have yet to see Falcao do. Falcao is much more likely to be marginalized in a match with his set of skills. Cavani can still contribute to a team even when he's not scoring goals. He's also a little over a year younger.
