Falcao García's Decision to Move to Panama
Radamel Falcao García, the renowned Colombian striker, has made the decision to move his residency to Panama, prioritizing his family's well-being over his future in professional football. This decision was announced during a press conference held in Panama, ahead of a friendly match he will participate in alongside Fredy Guarín, aimed at raising funds for the victims of a recent earthquake in Colombia.
Family First
Falcao García explained that his current focus is on settling his family in Panama and adapting to the new environment. He has not yet initiated formal negotiations with any new club, despite San Francisco, a Panamanian team, having expressed interest in his services. He stated, 'Now I am organizing my life, I have had little time to think about anything other than my family.'
Future in Panamanian Football
While Falcao García did not rule out the possibility of continuing his professional career, he emphasized that for now, his family's well-being takes precedence. He added, 'I have been here for a short time, so first I will settle the family well and then I will accompany José [Guarín] in some matches and training, and the idea is also to contribute my experience to society. I have a good relationship with José since childhood and he has made his club available to me if I want to play, but this is a phase of my life focused on the family project.'
Solidarity with Colombia
In the context of the earthquake that affected Colombia, Falcao García and Guarín will participate in a special event in Panama. The two former Colombian national team players will be special guests at the traditional La Chorrera derby, which will feature San Francisco FC and CA Independiente. The match will take place at the Agustín Muquita Sánchez stadium and all proceeds from the ticket sales will be donated to the families affected by the earthquake.
Falcao's Last Professional Match
Radamel Falcao García's last official match was on May 26, 2026, in the Nemesio Camacho El Campín stadium in Bogotá. The match, played for Millonarios, ended in a 2-1 defeat against O'Higgins of Chile, marking the end of Falcao's professional career so far. It remains unclear whether he will continue his career in Panama or conclude his playing days there.
