AS Monaco star Radamel Falcao has completed his season-long loan to Chelsea.



The Colombian international will ply his trade on a temporary basis for the Blues this season, following a loan spell with league rivals Manchester United in the previous campaign.

Falcao struggled during his first season in top flight as he managed just four goals throughout the campaign, but Blues boss Jose Mourinho is confident of bringing the striker back to his best.

"I am very happy to be joining Chelsea and can't wait to start training and help with our aim of retaining the league title and being successful in Europe." he told the club's official website.

The move sees Falcao reunite with his former Atletico Madrid teammates in Thibaut Courtois, Diego Costa and Filipe Luis.
