Radamel Falcao

[BlueDude 49]

What a waste... same goes to Hulk.

As a neutral, I'm sad to see him go there...one of the best strikers in modern football that I've watched ... shame he didn't get a big club transfer to kick some ass ... If it was his choice to go there, then I am very disappointed in him, but I believe it was done because of the 3rd party ownership.

As a Chelsea fan, I'm really glad he signed for Monaco, he won't trouble us in PL and he won't trouble us in CL, at least not as much as he could have. Would have been nice if we had signed him, but honestly I believe Cavani is much more suited for us.

Still a cracking player, will be nice watching him tear apart teams in France

Good thing about Falcao FINALLY going to Monaco is that we won't have to hear the 'Falcao to Chelsea' stories anymore(!), at least till January maybe.

This just sounds like hulk to russia all over again

James Rodríguez (€45M), Joao Moutinho (€25M), Radamel Falcao (€60M), and looks like more players will coming.

FFP, what's that?

Apparently Falcao have been transfer listed by Monaco. It is rumored that Ligue 1 decided that Monaco would have to move their headquarter to France or risk being fined 100m euros. If they move their headquarter to France it means all of their players wouldn't get tax free anymore, they would all have to pay 75% of their wages to taxes there.

However a few weeks ago there are rumors that Falcao is 29 years old and he would still cost at least £40-£50m atm and will demand quite a hefty wages too. So what do you all think?

Yep just came out a few hours ago but a few other news seems to have picked it up and to be fair the issue seems real. Currently Monaco is taking LFP to court over this argument.

He actually can.

[Strike 7,249]

He actually can.

is it just general practice then? No rule against it?

A player can move twice every season to my knowledge.

[ulsterchelsea 3,221]

Just cant play for 3 teams in 1 season I think

[Strike 7,249]

^that explains the buzz around this story

Last summer Hulk played a few games for Porto before moving to Zenit so you can definitely play for at least 2 teams competitively. However I am not sure you can move twice in the same transfer window, on loan is alright but permanently?
