Falcao, officially 27, is regarded as one of the top strikers in the world, and the mega-rich French club fought off competition to sign him from Atletico Madrid. But new reports in the striker's home of Colombia have uncovered documents from his primary school days making him 29 - with his birth date as February 10 1984, not the same day in 1986 as per his FIFA registration. please log in to view this image Happy birthday: The document claims Falcao was born in 1984, not 1986 - putting the striker at 29 please log in to view this image Young gun: The document was uncovered at one of Falcao's old primary schools please log in to view this image Doesn't add up: The reregistration form has Falcao at five years old in 1989 - making him 29 today It is also claimed that the striker attended 'pre-school transition' in Colombia at the age of five, a scheme that no longer existed in 1991 - when Falcao officially would have turned five, while it also says he was born in Bogota, not San Marta. According to his official age, Falcao made his professional debut in the second tier of Colombian football aged 13 for Lanceros Boyaca, scoring his first goal a year later. The hitman's father has spoken out to deny the allegations, while the man himself, who scored 70 goals over two seasons for Atletico, is getting down to business with Monaco's pre-season training ahead of the French Ligue 1 season. Monaco - managed by former Chelsea boss Claudio Ranieri - were promoted as champions from Ligue 2 and are looking to challenge last season's winners Paris St Germain for the title.
