Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was delighted with the first stage in which he had Cavani at his disposal. The Norwegian convinced the Uruguayan to renew and then everything changed. The arrival of Cristiano altered the attack plan and Cavani went from being indisputable to barely enjoying minutes at United. The Uruguayan was enjoying himself in England, but given the situation he is looking for a change of scenery. Everything, even if you don’t follow Solskjaer.
Kun Agüero’s long-term absence due to heart disease forces Barcelona to seek reinforcement for the lead in the market and both Cavani and the Catalan club are willing to join.
The Times assures this Thursday that Edinson Cavani will leave Manchester United in the summer and that he would like to stop at the Camp Nou. This newspaper affirms that Cavani had the ambition to play in Barcelona before finishing his career and also the player considers that he can remain in the absolute elite for at least two years.
Barcelona is also convinced by the arrival of the forward. The operation would always be at the end of the season and he would arrive as a free agent to avoid paying for any transfer but this is already in the making. As reported by Jugones, Barcelona has already contacted Cavani’s brother and representative to find out his availability in order to arrive in the summer. At the salary level, Salto’s is approximately nine million euros, a figure that could vary depending on the financial situation of Barcelona.

Although the last season at PSG, marked by injuries, predicted a downturn in the Uruguayan forward’s career, this forecast was totally wrong.
During the 20/21 he was important in Manchester United and added 17 goals throughout the season. The striker was ‘fine’ in the final stretch of the Europa League where he scored against Granada, scored four goals and distributed three assists against Roma and was also the scorer in the final lost to Villarreal on penalties. With his proven efficiency and ambition practically intact, PSG’s all-time top scorer is ready to take the baton from his compatriot Suárez and re-paint the Blaugrana forward as ‘light blue’.
