Monaco’s £53m blockbuster signing Falcao accused of lying about his age

TV news station Noticias Uno have alleged that the former Europa League and European Supercup winner is not 27 years old, but actually 29.

Their evidence is a series of registration documents from one of his primary schools, Colegio San Pedro Claver de Bucaramanga, which show that the striker was born on February 10 1984.

The star's FIFA registration states that he was born on the same date two years later, in 1986.

The school also has a photo of the youngster from his first year at the school in 1989, showing a boy who very easily could be Falcao, but who is clearly around five years old rather than three.



If the story is verified, Monaco's purchase - the seventh-biggest transfer deal of all time - is for a player who has just a few years left of his career, rather than one who could be expected to be at his peak for three or more years.

In addition, the sell-on value of a man who scored 34 goals in 41 matches last season will be instantly slashed: Monaco would be lucky to get half what they paid for him just a few weeks ago.

Neither Falcao nor Monaco have yet responded to the claims, but with so much money at stake (not to mention a fair bit of pride - nobody likes being duped) we're fairly sure the lawyers will be on the case already trying to figure out what's what.

Falcao's face in that second picture looks like the troll face meme, which sounds about right.


Posted by: han2503 Jul 23 2013, 03:29 PM

Well he's still imo one of the best strikers around right now, but being 29 means he's not worth half of that amount. I still think that he can still demand the huge wage he's earning anyway. Same case as with Ibra at PSG

That was awesome. I've heard really good things about Grenier.

Lopez doesn't look particularly good, but it's a great Ronaldinho-style goal.

PSG are so fucking lucky...they played like **** and ended up winning 2-0 with both goals in added time. It's pretty awful to watch them, every player wants to be a star..barely any team-play.

Posted by: Fillipo Simone Sep 1 2013, 12:47 AM

Well, that's the thing - Laurent Blanc isn't Ancelotti.

And to think, we sold him in a ridiculous buy 1 get 1 free deal...

That's even better than his Inter goal. Amazing.

You guys need to see Cavani's first goal in this game...no less amazing

Anyway, thought this was funny. biggrin.gif

A goal that defies physics ... http://vimeo.com/m/80728516

For me, R Carlos's freekick at the WCthat went 1 whole meter wide and back in smacking the post on its way was the best and most wicked freekick. But this, this is super human!

So David Luiz to PSG almost official at 50m. ohmy.gif Groovy!

Posted by: kurtsimonw May 23 2014, 07:13 PM

Signed for £24m. Failed completely as a CB. Gets signed or £40m.

Okay football. You've lost me.

Posted by: X-Offender May 23 2014, 07:35 PM

PSG should be banned from football with these numbers. €50 million for David Luiz? €50 million??? GTFO!

Posted by: Jack Sparrow May 23 2014, 07:47 PM

Un fricking believeable. In that case Muntari is worth at least 18 million.

Biggest bit of business Chelsea will ever make

Horrible defender

And to think, we let BOTH Zlatan and Silva go for just 10m more....


Suddenly my laughs have turned into tears cry.gif

Posted by: acid911 May 23 2014, 10:22 PM

Well, at least they will have an all Brazilian back four, a very solid defense for the next few years. smile.gif If they manage to keep the core going, that is. I like that they are going for defenders. Don't think too highly of Luiz, for me he is just ordinary made to look good because of where he plays, but good teams are built from the back up.

Hopefully we can have some new faces going far in the CL next season, PSG and Manchester City.

Chelsea have made €100 million by selling only Mata and Luiz. Unbelievable.

Posted by: kurtsimonw May 24 2014, 02:59 AM

FFP was flawed from the start. Football clubs don't make money. Though UEFA clearly only care about the clubs at the top and probably don't understand this.

I think this transfer goes to show that the punishments mean nothing, they don't bother the club at all.

UEFA "Stop spending too much, we have rules"
PSG "Oh okay"
PSG "Hi Chelsea, want £40m for David Luiz?"
UEFA "..."
