CONFIRMED: Radamel Falcao Signs On Loan

[Noucamp99]

But it isn't clear or certain if this deal will be made permanent:

Radamel Falcao's future with Manchester United is uncertain, the striker's agent Jorge Mendes has admitted.

Falcao is on a season-long loan deal at United from Monaco which includes the option for the Barclays Premier League side to buy.

However, the Colombia international has scored only three goals so far in an injury-affected season and was left out of the squad for Sunday's 1-0 home loss to Southampton.

Reports have suggested Falcao, who has been linked with Serie A side Juventus, was shocked by Louis van Gaal's decision to leave him out against the Saints, a call the manager confirmed was tactical.

Van Gaal did also stress after Sunday's game that the 28-year-old had started the previous five fixtures and that the next match would be "another moment" in terms of selection.

However, Mendes has raised doubts whether Falcao's loan will be turned into a £43.5m permanent transfer to United.

"He is a fantastic player, and I think it's very difficult for Manchester United fans," he said.


"What we do know is that he will play in one of the very best clubs in the world next season, whether that is Manchester United or not."

"The truth is, right now we don't know what will happen.
