Chelsea face Real Madrid competition for Falcao after agent denial

Chelsea face competition from Real Madrid for Porto striker Radamel Falcao.

Falcao took to Twitter yesterday to distance himself from statements made by agent Claudio Mossi, who suggested a move to Chelsea could be on with Andre Villas-Boas set to take charge.

Falcao insists his agent is Jorge Mendes, who also represents Real coach Jose Mourinho.

A Bola says Chelsea remain keen on signing the Colombia international, but will face competition from Real, where Mourinho is in the market for a new centre-forward.
