Radamel Falcao says it is his aim is to win the Premier League title with Manchester United this season, despite the club's sloppy start.
The Colombia international joined Louis van Gaal’s side on a season-long loan from Monaco on deadline day and is in line to make his debut against QPR on Sunday.
Falcao claims the chance to join Old Trafford was a “great opportunity” and believes a title challenge is possible, despite United failing to register a win in their opening three league games.
"My target is to score goals and win titles," Falcao told FourFourTwo.
"The aim this season is to win the title. It is important for me to help my club and Colombia as we prepare for the Copa America and the next World Cup for 2018.
"The Premier League is the best league in the world. The best players are there and you get to challenge yourself each week against the best.
"That is important for a player like myself who is looking to improve, score more goals and win trophies. This is a great opportunity for me."
The 28-year-old also said he is excited by the prospect of working with Van Gaal.
"We all saw at the World Cup that Van Gaal is one of the best managers in the world," Falcao added.
"I think he is the type of person who understands his players and gets the most out of them - that is important in order for a player, and also for a team in general to succeed."
