ATLETICO DE MADRID does not want to be caught off-side with the possible departure of their star forward FALCAO. The Colombian International looks more than likely to be leaving the Spanish Football Club at the end of this season. The two Clubs being talked about as possible destinations are Real Madrid & Chelsea FC, with the latter gaining strength in the last weeks.
Atletico has began to scout the European market for a replacement & candidates are sounding from Luis Suarez ( Liverpool ) , Dzeko ( Man City ) to David Villa ( Barça ), the latter sounded out for his opinion.
BAYERN MUNICH forward MARIO GOMEZ has entered the picture & has become a serious option to consider. The player is not getting playing time at Bayern as he has become a secondary actor behind Croatian forward Mandzukic, & the rumour of the possible signing of Lewandowski of Borussia Dortmund would relegate Suarez further as a forward.
The 27 year old German International may see Atletico de Madrid as a good opportunity to get back into regular playing & go off to a new League for the experience. Atletico are currently second of the Liga classification table & barring strange events look like winning themselves a Champions League place next season. Atletico has Mario in mind.
Stay tuned.
