Chelsea boss Roberto Di Matteo: 'Radamel Falcao best striker in world'

Chelsea manager Roberto Di Matteo has heaped praise on Atletico Madrid striker Radamel Falcao.

The Colombian star is believed to be a top target for the Champions League winners and reports have claimed that the Blues may be interested in doing a swap deal involving Fernando Torres with the Spanish side.

"He is one of the best strikers, probably, in European and world football," said Di Matteo.

Meanwhile, Falcao has claimed that he is open to a move to the top flight of English football.
