Falcao Could Stay At Manchester United

Monaco have revealed that Manchester United told them they have not ruled out keeping Radamel Falcao next season.

United have the option to turn Falcao’s one-year loan deal into a £43.2m permanent transfer in the summer.

The Colombian striker has scored four goals in 27 appearances this season and has been widely tipped to leave Old Trafford.

But Monaco vice-president Vadim Vasilyev says United have told the French club they haven’t yet made a decision about whether or not to keep the 29-year-old.

Vasilyev told L’Equipe: “I met the Manchester officials last Sunday. They have not decided if they would exercise the option.

“It has not been his best season, but they will decide at the end of the season.”

“The decision lies with Manchester and then we will discuss with the player to know what he wants.”
