"La Sexta, a seemingly reliable Spanish television station reported on Thursday night that Radamel Falcao, the highly sought-after striker from Atletico Madrid, has agreed to terms on a €60 million move to Monaco"
Hope he enjoys his money whilst playing in front of 6k fans every week.

Obviously the bonus for Falcao is his wages will be tax free.
In theory if Falcao earns £300,000 per week, and the above comes into play, Monaco could be left effectively paying £525,000 per week for Falcao.
In fairness he might not have that choice.
If the rumoured fee (60m) is correct then there won't have been too many clubs willing to pay that. United can't afford that, City don't seem to be interested or i'm sure they'd have been in for him by now. There's been lots of talk of Chelsea but Mourinho supposedly wants Lewandowski and who could blame him as he will cost less than half that. Barca don't really need him, Atletico wouldn't sell to Real and even Bayern won't pay 60m for a player.
Doesnt look good from an 'ambitious' perspective which is what Jarman said.
I'm just very shallow as my ambition would be to earn as much as possible before I got on the wrong end of a career ending injury from some fuckwit from a lower league trying to make a name for himself in some meaningless cup game
Wonderful player. Athletico certainly seem to be able to dig up a striker.
Sign a 4 year contract at one of the big clubs and it's be worth £20m guaranteed minimum, and very likely a hell of a lot more. Plus other earnings would be higher at a bigger club so that'd bridge the gap.
It's enough - I'm never working again if I don't want to. Meanwhile I can try to win the big competitions, and there aren't many chances to do that. It would matter to be more than extra millions on top of the millions I have.
