Uruguayan striker could depart if Falcao joins

Atletico Madrid have confirmed they would listen to offers for Diego Forlan if they get their hands on Porto's Falcao. The Liga outfit previously confirmed they were keen on the Porto marksman, who enjoyed a blistering 2010/11 season in front of goal. Atletico are not looking to cash in on free-scoring Forlan following Sergio Aguero's sale, however, they would review the Uruguayan's future if Falcao's signature was secured.

No interest

"At the moment we're not interested in selling Forlan, since we've already lost Aguero, but we are currently trying to buy Falcao from Porto," Atletico's chief executive Migel Angel Gil told FCInter1908. "If we close that deal, we'd listen to offers for Forlan." Italian giants Inter Milan are believed to be keen on landing Forlan with their star striker Samuel Eto'o expected to join Russian club Anzhi Makhachkala.
