During his pre-match press conference, Dutch coach Louis Van Gaal revealed Colombian striker Radamel Falcao and Argentinian defender Marcos Rojo could return to the squad when the Red Devils face Hull City this Saturday. Van Gaal cautiously stated both men could be available, but they have to complete one more training before this week's matchup.
"I have to train the last session and I live day by day at this moment. So maybe Falcao can come back in the 18, maybe Rojo can come back in the 18. That’s it I think. It’s always difficult to say but we have good news, yes. You have to read between the lines," Van Gaal stated.
Both men arrived this summer to Old Trafford, but it's the former Monaco player who's had a tough time finding his top form. Falcao returned to full training on Sunday after missing the last four first-team fixtures with a troublesome calf injury, while Rojo has not featured since dislocating his shoulder during United’s 1-0 defeat to local rivals Manchester City on November 2.
Manchester United currently hold the fourth spot in the Premier League standings, thirteen points behind undefeated leaders Chelsea.
