Edinson Cavani leaves Manchester United with a “bitter taste” in his mouth - but with nothing but gratitude to the club’s supporters.
The Uruguayan will leave Old Trafford this summer, with his contract expiring at the end of June. Cavani ended his time with the Red Devils by playing the full 90 minutes in the final-day defeat at Crystal Palace.
And there was a tinge of cruel irony about being fit enough to do so, after going through the entire campaign struggling with injury. Signed after leaving Paris Saint-Germain in 2020, the veteran striker quickly became a fans favourite, ending his first season at the club with 17 goals in all competitions.
