Radamel Falcao’s nightmare stay in English football continues… for now.
After his stay at Manchester United ended sooner than he would have hoped, his time at Chelsea is appearing to be equally miserable.
Falcao’s form has been far short of the displays he put in when at the peak of his powers at Atletico Madrid and saw him linked with a return to Monaco in the January transfer window.
With Chelsea set to return to Champions League action this month, it’s now been revealed that Falcao has been left out of their European squad – replaced by new signings Alexandre Pato and Matt Miazga.
Some might suggest the decision is further evidence that the Colombian could yet leave Stamford Bridge.
Given that his compatriot Jackson Martinez is the latest big name to move to Guangzhou, perhaps China will be his next destination?
