Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal, has asked Radamel Falcao to prove himself, if he wants to be part of his plans.
The Colombian striker who is on loan from Monaco, was dropped from the squad that lost 1-0 to Southampton last weekend.
Falcao is understood to have been shocked by the omission, but Van Gaal failed to reassure the £43.2million man in his Friday press conference.
“He has to prove himself,” Van Gaal said. “That we have agreed. Because of that, we have made this deal and everything is clear.
“It is not the end of the year so he has a chance to do that.
“If a player costs £95m or £5,000, it is not any different for me. But it’s difficult for you to understand, I believe.
“You have to prove yourself and a player of £95m has to prove himself also. If I am not like that, then maybe the player has no motivation, so I have to be like that.”
