However, ESPN announced on Monday (20) that the scenario is very different from what was imagined a few weeks ago. Cavani intends to stay with Manchester United and fulfill his contract until the end, which expires in June next year.
The Uruguayan was one of those responsible for helping the English club reach the UEFA Europa League final last season. He scored 17 goals and made 5 assists in 39 matches that Cavani played for United in 2020/21.
But this season, he only played in a 3-0 win over Wolverhampton, in a match valid for the third round of the English Premier League. The 34-year-old striker suffered from physical problems, started the confrontation on the bench, but entered the final stage and played for a few minutes.
