Manchester United could trigger £43m Radamel Falcao transfer if he starts one more match

Manchester United could be forced into signing Radamel Falcao – if he plays against Hull City on the last game of the season.

The Colombian has disappointed during a season-long loan deal to Old Trafford, but a clause in his contract means a 15th Premier League start next weekend would trigger a deal for the striker, claim the Express.

The forward has scored four goals in 14 Premier League matches this season and the report claims that the Red Devils would be forced into signing the 29-year-old if he starts 15 matches and scores five goals.

Having started in United’s 1-1 draw with Arsenal yesterday, Falcao was substituted on the hour mark and appeared to wave goodbye to the Old Trafford crowd as he made way for Robin van Persie.


However, with relegation-battling Hull to come on the final day of the season, United run the risk of signing the striker on a permanent deal if he is to start against Steve Bruce’s side
