The wait is over. Radamel Falcao García is a new Millonarios player for the second semester of the BetPlay League.
SEMANA was able to learn that, in the absence of medical examinations and signature, the Samario attacker will wear the colors of the team of his loves, the one that for years he fantasized about having while he left the country’s flag high with goals in Argentina, Spain, England, Turkey and France.
Falcao arrives at Millonarios after ending his relationship with Rayo Vallecano, the team for which he played the last two years. In the middle of the season, the Colombian agreed that the contract with the Spanish would not be renewed and he began to listen to offers from all over the world.
The United States, Saudi Arabia and Argentina appeared as a stronger option for Tigre, but his statements during an event in Bogotá accelerated the chances of reaching a happy ending.

How did the signing of Falcao come about?
“Everyone knows that Millonarios is the team of my heart since my childhood. These things are more complex, they are issues that are being discussed with the family, their decision (wife and daughters) is very important. We have already had conversations with Dr. (Gustavo) Serpa for a long time, so we will surely be talking very soon, it depends on his intentions,” were Radamel’s words on June 4.
That same week the first contact occurred. Serpa called Falcao directly and listened to the conditions that the player set to advance a possible negotiation.
From Miami, Tigre gave them the green light to prepare an offer and the tax issue began to be discussed as the main obstacle to the signing.
Millonarios proposed that they sign for only six months and from that point their landing in Colombia began to take shape. All that was left was for them to meet face to face to say their final yes.

Falcao will sign for six months at Millonarios and will leave the door open to renew in December. Depending on the results and feelings of the Colombian attacker, his stay could be extended to the first half of 2025 for the purpose of playing in an international tournament such as the Copa Libertadores or Sudamericana.
The blue team now has to design a plan that will determine which games Falcao will play throughout the semester, taking into account the logistical difficulties that could be generated with his transfer to other cities in the country.
In addition, the El Campín stadium is on loan for the U-20 Women’s World Cup between August and September, which forces Millonarios to look for a venue to play or, ultimately, ask Dimayor to allow them to postpone the first part of the round-robin. all.
