Manchester City's capture of Argentine starlet Julian Alvarez has paved the way for Edinson Cavani to join Buenos Aires giants River Plate when he leaves Manchester United in the summer.
Alvarez, 21, has agreed a deal that will cost City £15.5million up front and a further £7m in potential add-ons.
He will stay on loan at River Plate until the summer – when the Argentine club plan to replace him with United’s Uruguayan veteran Cavani.
