Chelsea wants to transfer last 3 months\u00a0to Colombian Radamel Falcao, \u00a0the Super cup final match\u00a0only confirmed \u00a0this decision. Blues\u00a0\u00a0Ready to give \u00a345m for Radamel Falcao<\/h1>\n

Preliminary discussions have already taken place about a January move for the Atletico Madrid goal machine\u00a0.<\/p>\n

Spare a thought for Fernando Torres this morning, who will have awoken in decent spirits having scored his fourth goal of the season in Chelsea’s 6-0 rout of Wolves only to hear that the club are preparing a \u00a345m bid for Colombian Radamel Falcao. Just when Torres thought he was firmly established as Chelsea’s principal striker, well, he is not.<\/p>\n

Not that there is any shame in the possibility of having to play second fiddle to Falcao. This, after all, is one heck of a striker, as Chelsea know only too well having seen the 26-year-old’s talents up close during last month’s Super Cup final, when Falcao scored a hat-trick in Atl\u00e9tico Madrid’s 4-1 victory over the European Champions. Roman Abramovich probably started writing the cheque then.<\/p>\n

The European champions now believe they cannot achieve their ambitions with Fernando Torres as their only front-line striker.<\/p>\n

And they are already holding internal talks to work out the best way of being first in the queue for Falcao when the transfer window reopens in January.<\/p>\n

A Chelsea source admitted: \u201cThe groundwork is already being done for Falcao.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe owner wants everything in place now so a deal can be done before any other club can make a counter-offer.\u201d<\/p>\n

Blues owner Roman Abramovich endorsed a formal bid after watching Falcao score three goals in last month\u2019s European Super Cup final and internal talks have taken place to work out how best to secure his signature when the transfer window reopens, the newspaper added.<\/p>\n

Falcao scored 36 goals in 49 appearances for Atl\u00e9tico last season having joined from Porto for \u00a332m in August 2011 and, apparently, Chelsea want the Colombian to move to London during the January transfer window, giving Torres a little over three months to prove he is more than a heavily-tattooed bench warmer.<\/p>\n
