We Won’t Stop Falcao Leaving – Atletico Boss

Atletico Madrid president Enrique Cerezo has admitted the club are powerless to stop Radamel Falcao leaving should a team match his buyout clause.

The Spanish side revealed it may have to sell its star striker with continuing financial problems whilst the Colombian forward has been linked with a move to Manchester City, Chelsea and Real Madrid in recent months.

Cerezo was forced to concede Atleti cannot keep the former Porto man from leaving should the fee be triggered.
“If they come along with his release clause; if they bring the money, they pay it and the player agrees, he doesn’t even have to say goodbye,” Cerezo told a Madrid television channel.

“The issue is there, but I think that Falcao is a responsible person, a man who understands what a contract is, what his situation is and that he’s in the team he wants to be in.”
