Juan Cuadrado joy at Radamel Falcao’s Chelsea loan deal
Chelsea winger Juan Cuadrado has confirmed that Colombia team-mate Radamel Falcao is set to join him at Stamford Bridge.
The Blues are set to take striker Falcao on a season-long loan from Monaco despite him scoring just four times in 29 appearances at Manchester United last season.
Cuadrado, currently on international duty alongside the 29-year-old at the Copa America, said: “I am very happy that he is with us [at Chelsea], but first we have got to concentrate on the Copa.”
Colombia boss Jose Pekerman backed the pair to flourish together at Chelsea, saying: “I have no doubts that they are going to help each other and are going to be a success.”
