Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has hinted the world's richest club by income could buy Monaco's Colombia striker Radamel Falcao next year.
.
Speaking on Spanish soccer chat show Punto Pelota on Monday night, Perez ruled out a bid for Falcao in the next transfer window in January but suggested Real could table one in the close season.
.
Falcao, 27, left Real's city rivals Atletico to join Monaco at the end of last season for a fee media reported was around 60 million euros ($81.5 million).
.
"He (Falcao) won't come in January but in June, who knows?" Perez said.
.
"Nothing is impossible and there is a lot of time between now and then," the construction magnate added.
.
"Falcao is a great player and I am aware that he wants to play for (Real) Madrid. I am aware of that, but it's normal. They told me."
.
One reason Real may be in the market for another striker is the patchy form of their French international Karim Benzema.
.
A favourite of Perez, Benzema has failed to win over Real's demanding fans since his arrival in 2009 and is regularly whistled by some sections of the Bernabeu crowd.
.
Perez sought to defend the 25-year-old, who has been criticised by Real coach Carlo Ancelotti for not working hard enough on the pitch.
.
"I have faith in all the players in our squad," Perez said.

I heard Radamel Falcao also confirmed that he loves his present club and he is not even thinking of a possible move to Real Madrid.
