Striker Radamel Falcao returns to La Liga with Rayo Vallecano FC
Colombia striker Radamel Falcao has returned to the Spanish championship with a modest club “Rayo Vallecano”.
Rayo announced the signing on Saturday but did not immediately release details on the length of the contract.
The 35-year-old Falcao arrived as a free agent. His last club was Turkey’s Galatasaray where he played from 2019 until the end of last season.
Falcao had two highly successful seasons with Atlético Madrid from 2011-13 when he helped it win the Europa League and the Copa del Rey. He then went on to play for Monaco, Manchester United, and Chelsea.
He joins the Madrid-based Rayo that has just returned to the first division. It is in 10th place after one win in three rounds.
