Chapter 158: The Battle of Falcao

Falcao was born in a place called Santamarta in Colombia. His father was also a well-known football player. He played seven times for the Colombian national team and scored two goals. However, his father did not support his son playing football and wanted Falcao to learn more aristocratic sports baseball. But soon Falcao discovered that football was his favorite. He chose to give up baseball and instead studied at the Fair Play Football School in Colombia, playing football in the Millionaire Club's junior team. At the age of 13, he represented the team in the second division.

When he was 15, the scouts in Riverbed brought him to Argentina and started playing for Riverbed after he turned 17.

Before signing a formal professional contract with River Plate Club, Falcao obtained a degree in media from the University of Buenos Aires. It can be said that he is a typical "intellectual among football players". The 17-year-old Falcao represented River Plate for the first time in the league. Two years later, he firmly held the main position of the Argentine giants, and scored 7 goals in the first seven games. However, injuries once hindered his takeoff. After gradually growing into the main force of River Plate and continuously scoring goals.

In the early days of the River Plate, the cause of the injury restricted Falcao's further performance, but he still tried hard to adjust his form in the 20062007 season, and became the team's top scorer with a stunning performance of 19 goals in 35 games and was shortlisted for the South American best team that year.

In 2009, Falcao came to Europe. Like other South American players, he came to the Portuguese League and joined Porto.

It turned out to be a successful transfer: Falcao won the league championship in his first season with Porto and helped the team score 30 goals. After that, Falcao had a nickname called Colombia God Front.

Last season, with Hulk's tacit cooperation, Falcao's performance on the court was even more sensible. Throughout the season, Falcao scored 38 goals, helping Porto dominate in many events such as the Europa League and Portugal. He himself also successfully took away the Europa League Golden Boot with 17 goals, and broke the 15-goal goal record in a single season set by Klinsmann, showing the God of Killing.

In the two seasons of playing for Porto, Falcao broke several goal records. In order to put the authoritative German website "Transfer Market", Falcao's net worth has approached 25 million euros, and there are countless giants who want to introduce him, including the Milan two-star Milan in Serie A, Arsenal in the Premier League, Liverpool and Tottenham, as well as Bayern in the Bundesliga and Lyon in the Ligue 1.

With such a goal-scoring shooter, should Atletico Madrid participate in the competition?

The answer is obviously yes.

With Wan Sheng's nodding, Atletico Madrid quickly made a offer to the Porto club.

This time, Wan Sheng also took the initiative to accept an interview and said, "Falcao will be the best candidate to replace Aguero!"

"I hope to get him, and he will become the banner of Atletico Madrid in the future!"

"As the report said, many clubs want to get Falcao, but Atletico Madrid is different. Other clubs are just an investment. Yes, they are not short of forward players who can score goals, such as Arsenal. They have Van Persie and Chelsea. They have Torres, and they seem to be still seeking to buy Juan Mata and Bayern? I don't know if Falcao has gone, and Mueller will give up the main position..."

Wan Sheng took a look at it one by one, which seemed to show that every club was not short of striker killers. Falcao could only play as a substitute when he went there, while Atletico Madrid was different. Aguero ran away from Manchester, and they were missing a core player on the front line.

Other clubs are dissatisfied with this.

Wan Sheng's words were like arousing public anger. The support media of the club came forward and said that they also hoped to get Falcao. Falcao came to their club and could also become the main scorer. Then these media began to talk about Atletico Madrid's forward line, such as Diego Costa, Costa is very efficient and is also a player who can become a core scorer.

Wan Sheng quickly responded and said, "It's useless for them to say so much, everything depends on Falcao's choice. Here, I must say that Falcao is the most important signing target for Atletico Madrid in summer!"

This sentence made many media vomit blood.

Falcao is Atletico Madrid's most important recruitment target in summer? Isn't this nonsense? Atletico Madrid did not participate in the Falcao battle before, so why did they become my territory as soon as they came!

Of course, if you want to make a transfer, the most important thing is the ideas of Porto Club and Falcao himself.

It is easy to say for the Porto Club. Even in the minor leagues, it is difficult to retain stars. They have long planned to sell Falcao, but it is just a matter of price. Atletico Madrid has a 36 million euros, and the bid is not low. This price is much more sincere than Arsenal and Bayern Munich, which is enough to make the Porto Club tempted. If they can choose, the Porto Club is of course willing to sell Falcao to Atletico Madrid.

So the most important thing is Falcao himself.

Wan Sheng stood up for an interview, publicly expressed his appreciation for Falcao, analyzed how much Atletico Madrid needed Falcao, and promised a high-paying contract. The purpose of all this was to convince Falcao.

What did Falcao himself think?

No one knows this except Falcao himself, but undoubtedly Falcao doesn't really want to leave Porto, because he has familiar teammates, familiar welcomes, and many fans who support him. But he knows in his heart that in order to develop his career, he must go to a wider place, whether to go to England, Italy, Germany, or Spain?

Falcao was hesitant.

As a Colombian player, he has been staying in Portugal after landing in Europe and is not familiar with other leagues.

In the end, Falcao decided to let the club choose for himself.

This will also satisfy the Porto club and make Porto fans satisfied with themselves. After all, this will bring the greatest benefits to Porto.

In fact, this is also a way to test the sincerity of each team.

Clubs that contribute a lot must be full of sincerity, but clubs that contribute a little may not be certain. It is very likely that they just regard themselves as an investment, and they may not be willing to lose money if they spend too much money.

Competing with financial resources, those small clubs and clubs with poor financial conditions have already been cut off.

Liverpool, AC Milan, and Arsenal, who are not very interested in Falcao, have all withdrawn from the competition. Among the remaining teams, the most competitive ones are Bayern Munich, Chelsea and Atletico Madrid.

Among the three teams, the media is not optimistic about Bayern Munich.

First of all, Bayern Munich is a Bundesliga team. Generally, South American players do not like the Bundesliga because many South American players will not adapt. Moreover, Bayern Munich is not a team that is willing to spend a lot of money to buy stars. In addition, as Wan Sheng said, Bayern Munich already has Thomas Muller on the front line, and does not need Falcao to join.

Chelsea and Atletico Madrid are much more sincere.

The two clubs began to keep their feet working. Chelsea raised the transfer quotation to 37 million euros, and Atletico Madrid increased it to 30,000 euros. Soon after, Falcao's transfer quotation reached 40 million euros.

40 million euros is a critical point, and the two clubs seem to have a tacit understanding and will not raise prices.

This made the Porto Club a little regretful.

They certainly wouldn't agree so much to sell Falcao to one of the clubs, but instead waited for the two clubs to continue competing.

What many people don’t know is that the competition between Atletico Madrid and Chelsea is not only in Falcao, but Valencia’s scorer Juan Mata is also their target.

Just a week later, Chelsea's offer for Juan Mata has reached 26 million euros, and Atletico Madrid also quoted a high price of 25.5 million euros.

By this time, both clubs knew that continuing to compete would not benefit both parties, not to mention that the two clubs were actually very friendly, and Wansheng and Abramovich had a good relationship. Abramovich also holds shares in Tagorevan Group and is also one of the actual directors of Tagorevan Group, but he never interferes in the management of the group company.

Abramovich does not interfere in the player's transfer work. Perhaps he is in Russia and doesn't know whether Atletico Madrid and Chelsea's transfer competition is concerned, or Wan Sheng calls him.

Abramovich was surprised when he received a call from Wan Sheng. The last time the two of them had a call was two years ago.

Wan Sheng had no nonsense and talked about the competition between the two clubs. After hearing this, Abramovich asked, "What solution do you have? Chelsea really needs a core shooter!"

"It's very simple. We quit the competition in Juanmata, and you quit the competition in Falcao!"

"Why not change it?"

Wan Sheng thought about it and found a reason casually, "As far as I know, Chelsea's operations have never been very good. With your salary level, if you give Falcao a big contract, can you still ensure balance of income and expenditure?" He looked like he was considering Chelsea.

Abramovich also smiled. He hardly interfered in club affairs, but in his opinion, whether he could introduce a star for Chelsea is definitely not important to have a good relationship with Wan Sheng. Wan Sheng is not a few years ago. The two are friends who stand in the same position and can talk to each other equally.

In the end, Wansheng agreed to go to London next time to have tea with Abramovich, so he agreed to transfer.

The next step is simple.

Chelsea club withdrew from the fight for Falcao, while Atletico Madrid withdrew from the fight for Juan Mata.

In the competition for Falcao, Atletico Madrid has no competitors, and the Porto club can only accept a quotation of 40 million euros and sell Falcao to Atletico Madrid.
