Porto's Falcao has confirmed he would favour a move to the Premier League over a switch to Spain's top flight.

Colombian hit-man hoping for English switch

Porto striker Falcao has confirmed he would favour a move to the Premier League over a switch to Spain's top flight. The Colombia international is being tipped to leave the Portuguese club after plundering an impressive 33 goals last season. Falcao has been linked with a reunion with ex-Porto boss Andre Villas-Boas at Chelsea, but the striker falls short of naming Stamford Bridge as his preferred destination. The 25-year-old is full of admiration for Spain's Primera Liga, however, he prefers the atmosphere at English venues and wants to experience that week-in, week-out.

Dream

"There is a club that I dream to play for," stated Falcao. "They are foreign but I do not want to say who it is now. "The Spanish league is good, but I prefer the Premier League as there is a better atmosphere on the field. "I have matured in every respect and I am qualified to play in any big league."
