In the second league of France, but returning to the highest division next season, the "Monaco" club can soon shake up the football market and acquire Madrid's "Atletico" striker Radamel Falcao.
Controlled by Russian billionaire Dmitry Rybolovlev, "Monaco" hopes to challenge "Paris Saint Germain" and other French clubs next season and return to the UEFA Champions League in the near future.
For this, D. Rybolovlev promises to put all his efforts and millions of euros. The first target for "Monaco" is Madrid's "Atletico" superstar Radamel Falcao, for whom, according to Spanish outlet "La Sexta," the French are willing to pay 60 million euros. This ransom amount is written in the 27-year-old Colombian's contract with "Atletico."
Based in Monaco but playing in the French football league, the team is one of the most successful in the country, having won the national championship seven times and the cup five times. In 2004, "Monaco" lost in the Champions League final to "Porto."
