regretful! Celta conceded missing out on signing Falcao at the last minute

Vallecano striker Falcao has been in great shape after returning to La Liga this season, scoring four goals in just three league starts, averaging just 60 minutes per ball.

At the press conference, the Celta general manager admitted that they had sat at the table with Falcao to negotiate: "When we didn't have a place for non-EU players, they gave us Falcao. It's really not for the money, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to Vallecano. He is willing to make a huge effort for Spanish football, as he did there. But we couldn't do it at the time because we had already brought in a foreign striker. ”

On the other hand, he also admitted that he was not so impressed with Falcao at the time: "He is a great player, but we also have good strikers in our team. When they offer you a 35 or 36 year old player, you have worries like us, but he looks great. We missed signing him, which is a bit of a shame. ”
