Liverpool maintain contact with Monaco striker Falcao

AS Monaco striker Radamel Falcao remains on the agenda of Liverpool. The Mail on Sunday says Falcao is still interesting English clubs including Liverpool even though the player himself is hoping to join Real Madrid.

The Colombian striker, who last year joined French club Monaco for £50million from Atletico Madrid last year is understood to be dissatisfied in the French League and keen to move back to Madrid.

For Liverpool, it is understood that the financing of the move would not be a problem even though Falcao would need to be paid more than £200,000 a week.

Monaco are asking for a £12million loan fee, though that would be negotiated down. Manchester City have also made inquiries about Falcao but not taken it further at present.
