Galatasaray moving for Chelsea striker Radamel Falcao

Galatasaray are moving for Chelsea striker Radamel Falcao.

The Sun says the Monaco striker — on loan at Chelsea — has failed to make an impact during two miserable seasons in England.

Reports in Turkey claim super agent Jorge Mendes has been instructed to find the Colombia star a new club — and Galatasaray, as well as Zenit St Petersburg and River Plate, are interested.

The Turkish league has attracted the likes of ex-Prem stars Robin van Persie, Nani, Raul Meireles and Lukas Podolski.

But Falcao's massive wage demands may prove a problem for the Turkish giants.

The Colombian is thought to earn a staggering £140,000-a-week.
