Beppe Marotta revealed Juventus “were very close to Radamel Falcao” this summer.
The Bianconeri director general was on RAI programme La Domenica Sportiva this evening.
“We were very close to Falcao, as the player wanted to privilege Italy and our jersey.
“However, then Manchester United stepped forward and they have more spending power, so the deal fell apart.”
Manchester United took Falcao on loan from Monaco for £6m with an option to buy permanently for £43.5m (€55m).
