The Colombian striker went back to his parent club Monaco at the end of the season after a disastrous loan spell at Manchester United.
Jose Mourinho has already hinted at making three new signings this summer, and he is keen to find a replacement for Didier Drogba.
And he has confirmed he is interested in bringing Falcao to Stamford Bridge.
If I can help Falcao arrive at his level I will do it
"It really hurts me that people in England believe that Falcao is the guy they saw at Manchester United," Mourinho told DirecTV Sports.
"He's a player I know, one that I've followed since Atletico Madrid and if I can help Falcao arrive at his level I will do it."
Mourinho hinted at his summer plans when he told the Sunday Times: "We lost a striker [Drogba] who scored four goals in the Premier League, but three of these goals meant important points for us.

"A striker that was very experienced, who every minute was fantastic for us, even in the last 10 minutes to hold the ball, cool down emotionally the game.
"So we have to buy a striker because we want to have three strikers of a good level.
"We do not want to have just one. Then you lose a good position on the negotiation table."
