Radamel Falcao has admitted for the first time that he is likely to leave Manchester United at the end of the season . The Colombia star has stayed silent amid speculation that United will reject the opportunity to turn his £5million loan from Monaco into a permanent £43m deal . But Falcao conceded on Tuesday that he will probably have to look elsewhere for regular first-team football , having not started a game under Louis van Gaal for the last month . Radamel Falcao dropped a major hint that he could leave Manchester United when his loan expires . ‘ Obviously I need to find a place where I have continuity and can play , ’ Falcao said in Bahrain , where Colombia play a friendly on Thursday . ‘ I think any footballer needs to play and is happy playing . ‘ So when the championship ends surely I ’ ll sit down , do an analysis and decide what ’ s best for me. ’ Falcao has scored just four goals in 22 appearances for United , where he earns £280,000 a week , and was made to play for the club ’ s Under 21 team earlier this month . His mentor and former agent , Silvano Espindola , revealed last week that the player has been reduced to tears by his treatment at Old Trafford . Liverpool are being linked with the 29-year-old striker but it is understood that Paris Saint-Germain , Juventus and Valencia are more likely destinations . The Colombian has been more used to starting from the bench for the Reds this season . ‘ Calls come every day so in that sense I ’ ve got to stay calm , but I keep on the fringe of them , there are people who deal with all that situation , ’ said Falcao . ‘ I owe myself to Manchester United at the moment , I have faith and hope because lots of things can happen in the number of matches remaining . I will continue to fight to the end at Manchester United. ’ While United are happy to let Falcao leave Old Trafford , they will do all they can to ensure that £59.7m record signing Angel di Maria stays . The Argentine is said to be unsettled in England just seven months after arriving from Real Madrid . Falcao came on as a substitute in United 's win against Liverpool on Sunday and has scored just six goals . Di Maria ’ s form has dipped after a bright start and his family have been unhappy since an attempted break-in at their Cheshire home last month . United midfielder Marouane Fellaini , meanwhile , has refuted suggestions that his presence in the team leads to a long-ball game , saying : ‘ We play beautiful football. ’ Robin van Persie could return against Manchester City on April 12 following a month out with ankle ligament damage . United have no plans to let £59.7million record signing Angel di Maria leave the club in the summer though .
