River Plate contemplating summer swoop for Man Utd's Falcao

Argentine club River Plate are planning a sensational summer move for Radamel Falcao.

Reports suggest that the Buenos Aires giants could go after the Colombian striker at the end of the season in a bid to bring him back to the club where he spent time early in his career.

"Hopefully Falcao again," said vice-president Matthias Patanian.

"You always dream about these big names are in River because they are children of the house. The doors will always be open."

Falcao, who is on loan at United from French club Monaco, joined River in 2001 before landing himself a move to FC Porto in 2009.
