Manchester United have agreed a
loan deal for Monaco striker
Radamel Falcao, subject to a
medical and terms.The Colombia international, who
cost Monaco 60 million euros last
summer, is set to join Louis van
Gaal's squad, sources told ESPN
FC.
Falcao had also been a target for
Real Madrid and had been linked
with Arsenal and Manchester City
His arrival will be one of two
transfers United are expected to
complete on deadline day, along
with finalising Daley Blind's move
from Ajax.
Van Gaal had already brought in
Southampton left-back Luke
Shaw, Athletic Bilbao midfielder
Ander Herrera, Sporting Lisbon
defender Marcos Rojo and Real
Madrid winger Angel Di Maria.
European champions Madrid had
been the favourites to sign
Falcao, whose departure from
Monaco seemed to be signalled
when he was omitted from their
squad to face Lille on Saturday.
The 28-year-old, who missed the
World Cup because of a cruciate
ligament injury, scored 70 goals in
91 games for Atletico Madrid and
72 goals in 87 matches for Porto
before joining Monaco.
Falcao's signing should pave the
way for Javier Hernandez to
move to Madrid, with the striker's
Mexico boss earlier wishing him
luck on his move to the Bernabeu.
Onda Cero journalist Alberto
Pereiro tweeted a picture of
Hernandez undergoing a medical
in Madrid on Friday morning.
