| Title | The striker is still understood to be earning more than captain Wayne Rooney | ||||
| About me | The Czech midfielderhasn't taken the field since the Champions League play-off first leg against Besiktas and is yet to play a part in the Premier League. And it seems that unless he gets more FIFA game time the 33-year-old could consider his options further down the line. The lack of match practice has been absolutely terrible and, naturally, it makes me very sorry that I haven't been given a chance yet, he said.“It is difficult mainly because you know that the potential of the FIFA 15 ultimate team is elsewhere and we haven't done well so far. I think I could have helped but, unfortunately, I can't put myself on the pitch.” FIFA have gambled £24million on Radamel Falcao firing them back into the Champions League at the first attempt.The Old Trafford giantspulled off the coup of this summer's transfer deadline day with the stunning capture of the Colombia international striker on a season-long loan from French side Monaco. United insist they are not be paying Falcao's tax-free Monaco salary in full, but the striker is still understood to be earning more than captain Wayne Rooney - who is on £230,000-a-week - with the Colombian being paid around £265,000-a-week.That represents a calculated risk by United, given the 28-year-oldwas sidelined for nearly six months at the start of this year and missed the FIFA World Cup after suffering www.Okfifacoins.com a serious knee injury in January that required surgery. Falcao is on £10m a year at Monaco, and to ensure he remains on the same'take home' salary in England United have to pay him close to £350k-a-week.While the Reds are adamant they are not paying that much, those are the figures quoted to FIFA and Manchester City, both of whom were also offered the player by his agent, Jorge Mendes. Following confirmation early on Monday evening that Holland international defender Daley Blind has completed his moveto United from Ajax, the capture of Falcao takes their spending this summer through the £150m barrier. They have the option to sign the striker on a permanent deal at the end of the year's loan.Radamel Falcao's career in pictures:Falcao arrived in Manchester by private jet late on Monday afternoon and was driven straight to United's Carrington training ground, where he underwent a medical before completing the formalities of his move.The former River Plate, Porto and Atletico Madrid striker will fly to Miami for Colombia's friendly against Brazil on Friday, and could make his United debut against QPR at Old Trafford a week on Sunday.The major investment in Falcao provides conclusive proof of United's determination to get straight back into the top four and Champions League FIFA after last season's struggles. | ||||
