EPL: Chelsea Plotting £45 Million Bid for Atletico Madrid’s Falcao

Chelsea FC owner and Russian business tycoon Roman Abramovich has given the ‘okay’ for a £45 million bid for Atletico Madrid’s Colombian striker Radamel Falcao.

Spain’s Atletico paid £32 million for the 26-year-old goal scoring machine from Porto FC last summer.

Preliminary discussions have already taken place about a January move, a Chelsea source admitted.
