As Colombian goal poacher, Radamel Falcao is in great dilemma on the club to join in the summer, compatriot, who is Colombian football legend, Faustino Asprilla has revealed that he advised the Atletico Madrid striker to sign for Manchester United.
Falcao has been the subject of intense transfer speculation with Chelsea and Manchester City amongst a number of clubs interested.
However, Asprilla who had previously played for Newcastle United believes the £46million-rated star should head to Old Trafford this summer if he wants to regularly challenge for trophies.
Asprilla said: ‘We were talking and he asked me my opinion on who he should join. He knows that every big club in the world wants him. He is not a player motivated by money - what he wants is somewhere that his family will be happy and where he will have success.
'With teams like Real Madrid, PSG, Manchester City they have good times then they have bad times - that is why I told him he must choose Manchester United. Every season they are challenging - and if he wants success that is where I have told him to go.
Asprilla also believes Falcao will be the only player ever to play in the Premier League who can rival the finishing ability of Alan Shearer.
‘It is difficult for me to explain how good he is - he is the best finisher in the world. The only striker who has played in the Premier League who is on his finishing level is Alan Shearer.
