Radamel Falcao has dismissed talk of a move to Juventus and says he is "focused 100 percent" on playing for Manchester United.

Falcao, 29, has struggled to make a real impact since arriving at United on loan from Monaco last summer, having scored just four goals in 22 appearances.

However, despite talk of a move elsewhere at the end of the season - with Juve one of the sides linked to the Colombia international - he insists he is only concentrating on doing well for Louis van Gaal's side.

"Juventus looking for me? They talk a lot, but now I'm focused 100 percent on Manchester United," Falcao told Radio Caracol.

Falcao has had to bide his time on the bench for United of late, having not been selected in Van Gaal's starting XI since the 2-0 win over Sunderland in February.

The striker said earlier this week that he "just needs to play," and he spoke once again of his hope for more first-team opportunities before the season is out.

"Before the end of the season there are some crucial matches and I hope that this situation will change," he said.
