Colombia striker Radamel Falcao has said that he will return to Manchester United with more confidence after rediscovering his form in front of goal during the international break.
The 29-year-old scored a penalty in Monday's 3-1 victory over Kuwait to equal his country's goalscoring record, adding to his two goals in last week's 6-0 win over Bahrain.
Falcao has scored just four goals in 19 games in the Premier League this season since joining United on a season-long loan from Monaco, but he hopes that his displays for his country will help him to prove his worth at Old Trafford.
"I think when I score it's always important and that gives me confidence. I said before I need minutes, I need to play games in a row and here in the national team I have had the opportunity. I gave my best and I scored and I now return to Manchester with more confidence," he told Sport 360.
"We have the last eight games, I will give my best to have the chance to play as many minutes as possible. I have said before I need to play. I need minutes and I am confident about me, about my fitness. I am confident."
Falcao is widely expected to leave the Premier League when his loan expires in the summer.
