Chelsea prepare Radamel Falcao loan move?

Chelsea are reportedly lining up a January loan move for Monaco striker Radamel Falcao.

The Blues have tracked the Colombian for some time but are readying a short-term offer in the winter transfer window after hearing that he has become unhappy with life in Ligue 1.

According to the Daily Star, the former Atletico Madrid star is earning around €7m (£5.8m) per-year in France after signing up for around €14m (£11m).

Blues boss Jose Mourinho has been a long-term admirer of Falcao and a loan move could be forthcoming ahead of a proposed permanent switch in the summer.
