Colombia's Falcao waiting for Real Madrid offer

Madrid, June 23 (IANS/EFE) Colombian striker Radamel Falcao has turned down a host of offers from the English Premier League as he is waiting for an offer to realise his dream of playing for Spanish club Real Madrid.

Falcao wants to play for Real Madrid, a club that is in search of a young striker to replace Alvaro Morata, according to AS newspaper, reports EFE.

The 28-year-old, who is under contract with AS Monaco until 2018, told his agent that playing for 'Los Merengues' is his dream and knows that Real Madrid want a striker besides Karim Benzema.

Falcao has reportedly rejected offers from Chelsea, Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspurs and Liverpool. He recently recovered from a cruciate ligament tear which stopped him from competing in the ongoing World Cup.
