falcao-monaco

Colombia forward Radamel Falcao will undergo a neurological test on Thursday to see if he can return to action for Monaco, the Principality club said on Wednesday.

Falcao, 30, hasn’t played for the Ligue 1 outfit since suffering concussion in the 4-0 defeat to Nice three weeks ago.

Concussion protocol means that players must be given the all-clear by a neurological expert before returning to the pitch.

Monaco coach Leonardo Jardim said in a press conference that should he be cleared, Falcao will be in the squad for Friday night’s trip to Toulouse.

Monaco are second in Ligue 1, a point behind leaders Nice, with Toulouse fourth, although a further five points back. – Agence France-Presse
