Radamel Falcao denies Real Madrid tweet

Monaco forward Radamel Falcao has said that an update on his Twitter account seeming to confirm a move to Real Madrid was a "photo montage" and not written by him.

The 28-year-old's account updated yesterday evening with a message saying: "Dream come true #HalaMadrid".

The message was only on the Colombian forward's account for a matter of minutes before it was deleted, and he has since denied that he wrote the message.

"I have to deny a story about a Tweet I didn't do and which is a photo montage," a subsequent tweet from his official account read.

Nonetheless, Falcao was not part of the Monaco squad that drew 1-1 with Lille last night, which only added further fuel to speculation claiming that the striker is on his way out of the French club.

If Falcao does move to Madrid, he will follow in the footsteps of James Rodriguez, who left the French principality to join the European champions earlier this summer in a £60m deal.
