Millonarios FC is on the threshold of what could be the most transcendental business in the history of Colombian football. The Embajador club is in advanced negotiations to close the signing of Radamel Falcao García, a movement that could redefine the national football landscape. The forward, known worldwide as “El Tigre” and the all-time top scorer of the Colombian National Team, could join the ranks of Millonarios to play in the Betplay League in the second half of 2024.
In a meeting that has aroused the enthusiasm of the fans, Falcao had his first approach with who would be his new coach, Alberto Gamero. Although the meeting happened casually, the connection between the two was immediate and emotional. Gustavo Gómez, director of the radio program ‘6AM Hoy por Hoy’ on Caracol Radio, was the one who revealed the details of this meeting.
According to Gomez, The meeting was warm and full of camaraderie. “You can’t imagine how happy and emotional the meeting between Gamero and Falcao was. Great hug, conversation, also, regarding Falcao’s father, they were friends. It was a hug from the heart and soul,” said the journalist. This chance meeting not only strengthened the relationship between player and coach, but also underlined the human dimension of the possible signing.
