Van Gaal unsure over Falcao

Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal is having second thoughts over pursuing a permanent deal for Radamel Falcao, according to the Express.

The Colombia international forward moved to Old Trafford on loan on transfer deadline day, and he has so far made five appearances for the club, scoring his one and only goal so far in the 2-1 win over Everton last month.

However, he has missed United’s last two games through injury and there are concerns over his long term fitness, not least due to him spending the second half of last season out with a knee injury that also ruled him out of the World Cup finals in Brazil.

Should a permanent move to the Manchester club fail to materialise, he will surely not be short of offers with Liverpool, Arsenal and Real Madrid all previously linked with the 28 year old former Porto and Atletico Madrid man.
