As per reports the Uruguayan striker has apparently extended his contract with Manchester united for at least another season. Cavani has been in excellent form for the club and has scored goals in the most crucial of matches. Cavani has scored 12 goals in 33 appearances this season, with 16 of those appearances coming from the bench.
The official announcement is expected next week and will be well received news from United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. The gaffer wanted the player to stay and has made it happen. Ole was all praises for the Uruguayan after his performance against Roma a couple of days ago.
Ole earlier in an interview said:” Edinson was excellent. I’ve said before, he plays as a centre-forward should be playing, running the channels, being the focal points, creating chances for others, scoring goals. I’m absolutely delighted with him. You can see the difference in him, he’s worked up his fitness having had a long lay-off. He’s making up for lost time.”
He also added:” He knows my feelings, he knows that I would love to have him for another year, we have spoken about it. I understand this year has been very difficult, but I promised him that Old Trafford and Manchester is a different place with fans in the stadium.
I’m doing my best, nights like this [help], hopefully we can get to the final and hopefully he can see himself being here for another year. We don’t have to sell the club to him. It’s about the feeling he gets coming into training every day, the environment we created, the team we are creating that he is a part of. We’ve got the best fans and, as a goal scorer, there is no better feeling than scoring and celebrating in front of them.”
