Monaco manager Claudio Ranieri has revealed that Colombian striker Radamel Falcao should be fit to play at the World Cup.
The £50m striker suffered a knee ligament injury last month and the original prognosis was that he would miss the rest of the season, as well as the tournament in Brazil.
However, Ranieri has spoken to Falcao, who swapped Atletico Madrid for Ligue 1 in the summer, and has been told that his recovery is going well and he could yet represent his country this summer.
"I had Radamel Falcao on the phone yesterday," Ranieri told Monaco's website on Friday. "He's doing well and working hard. His knee is reacting very positively, I think he'll play at the World Cup."
Greece, Ivory Coast and Japan are in Colombia's World Cup group.
