Edinson Cavani suggests Cristiano Ronaldo signing made him want to leave Manchester United

Manchester United striker Edinson Cavani has revealed that if he had known Cristiano Ronaldo would be joining the club, he would not have signed at Old Trafford.

Cavani's contract is set to expire at the end of the season and he is not expected to be signing a new deal at the Theatre of Dreams. The 35-year-old's campaign at United has been blighted by injury with the Uruguayan having played just six matches since the turn of the year.

Having joined from PSG in 2020, Cavani signed a new contract extension at Old Trafford on May 10. On August 31, United announced that Ronaldo would be returning to the Theatre of Dreams on a two-year deal.
