Edinson Cavani has signed a one-year contract extension with Manchester United. The prolongation comes very soon as Cavani proved his worth to the club and management so now he will stay until 2022 at Old Trafford.

Cavani has scored 15 goals this season for Manchester United in the European competition and also in the English top-flight that is Premier League. And it took not much time to keep a player who can score goals and possess the number 7 jersey at Manchester United to deliver absolute finish whenever needed.

Edinson Cavani stated: “Over the season, I have developed a great affection for the club and everything that it represents. I feel a deep bond with my teammates and the staff who work behind the scenes here. They give me extra motivation every day and I know that, together, we can achieve special things.

“From the very first moment that I arrived, I felt the confidence of the manager. As a player, this belief gives you the perfect opportunity to play your best football and I want to thank him for that. I have been touched by how much the supporters have wanted me to stay, and I will give them everything to bring them happiness and joy with my performances on the field. I’ve not yet been able to play in front of the Old Trafford crowd and that is something that I cannot wait to do.”

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said: “I said when Edinson signed, that he would bring energy, power, and leadership to this group and I haven’t been proved wrong, he has been everything I thought he would be and more.”

“As coaches, we knew about his goalscoring record. However, it is his personality that has brought so much to this squad, he has a winning mentality and has an unequivocal attitude to everything he does. Edinson is one of the last to leave the training ground and sets the tone for the upcoming youngsters with his approach to his profession every single day. I have always wanted him to stay and experience the way our fans will respond to him as a player, and this means he will hopefully get that opportunity.”
