Galatasaray have asked star striker Radamel Falcao to leave the club as they can no longer afford his wages.

But after scoring 19 goals in two seasons for Gala, the Colombian has been asked to leave.

Club president Burak Elmas has said the club's financial problems mean they can no longer afford to keep Falcao or former West Ham midfielder Sofiane Feghouli.

"I talked to Falcao and Feghouli," he told reporters.

"They provided very good services to us but with this wage structure we can't pay their wages. We want them to find a club."
