Falcao must bring down his wages if he is to join Juventus - Marrotta

The Serie A champions are interested in signing the Colombia international, but fear his wage demands could frustrate a potential deal

Juventus general director Giuseppe Marotta has acknowledged that Radamel Falcao's wages could prove to be too much of an obstacle for the Serie A champions.
The Monaco man is currently on loan at Manchester United, but the Premier League side seem unlikely to make his move permanent come the end of his temporary spell.
Juve are closely monitoring Falcao's situation and could make a move for the Colombia international if he were to become available this summer.
However, Marotta has admitted that negotiations will not be easy due to the 29-year-old's hefty wages.
"The situation with Falcao is complicated," Marotta told Sky Sports.
"His wages cannot be overlooked. At the moment, signing him seems to be a utopia."
The Juve director then went on to discuss a potential move for Paris Saint-Germain forward Edinson Cavani and made it clear that they are unlikely to bring in the Uruguay international as PSG are not willing to sell.
"We really like Cavani, but at the moment he is not available."
Juve are in the market for a new attacker due to the ongoing uncertainty about the future of Carlos Tevez, who is being heavily linked with a return to Boca Juniors, even though the Argentine has insisted nothing has been decided as of yet.
"Boca Juniors? There is nothing happening. People talk too much," the Serie A top scorer told reporters. "I would rather enjoy this moment and focus on achieving our goals."
