Man Utd and Chelsea flop Radamel Falcao wants transfer to David Beckham’s new MLS franchise Inter Miami
RADAMEL FALCAO, one of a staggering 70 first-team players at Monaco, is angling for a move to David Beckham’s Inter Miami side.
SunSport understands Falcao, 33, wants to finish in MLS a career that has included spells with River Plate, Porto, Manchester United and Chelsea.
Falcao scored 16 times this season for French outfit Monaco in 34 games to help the team survive relegation by just two points.
New MLS 'franchise' Miami will start playing in 2020, just months before the Colombian's contract expires.
Playing in Miami would, of course, be a logical step for Falcao, because of the massive Hispanic population in the city, and the relative proximity to his native Colombia.
Falcao is just one of a number of star names linked with a move to Beckham's start-up.
Luis Suarez, Wayne Rooney, Cristiano Ronaldo and even Lionel Messi have been linked with mega-money moves to the US team.
Columbus Crew are also an MLS club interested in bringing former Premier League flop Falcao on board, and the club are mooting whether to move the franchise to Austin, Texas.
Falcao played at last summer's World Cup, where Colombia were knocked out by England on penalties in the last-16.
He scored one against Poland in the tournament and fired one in during a friendly against Venezuela as well.
MESSI TO MIAMI?
He recently had a statue erected in Santa Marta, Colombia, where he was born.
But fans claimed the bizarre 19-foot artwork looks nothing like him.
His time in the Premier League was one to forget.
He joined Manchester United for a £5million loan fee with a view to buy from Monaco in September 2014.
