Ole Gunnar Solskjaer positively understood what he was doing when he dove to sign Edinson Cavani on free exchange.
While the Uruguayan is one the most settled frontmen in world football, his to some degree last-discard landing in Old Trafford was met with a lot of distrust.
Given his propelling years, Cavani (presently 34) was viewed as another makeshift marking, instead of a genuine answer for United’s issues at No.9.
From that point forward, however, the veteran has demonstrated himself to be an inexorably important individual from the group, solidifying his place as United’s lead community forward. His seven objectives in 24 appearances don’t start to recount the tale of his overall commitment to his side – which likewise reaches out past the pitch.
What’s more, Cavani is more than content with his part as the senior legislators among his companions and disclosed to ManUtd.com how he has been making everything easier.
“As someone who is a bit older, there are things that you notice that maybe they, as younger players don’t quite see yet. Just normal everyday football things. I’m here to give the best I can give of myself and to occasionally offer my opinion on things. Honestly speaking, I don’t really like to just give out advice. I prefer to support and be there to help. I like to give my best. If someone would like to take something on board as an example, something that I’ve done, then yes, by all means. I don’t like it when people try to impose things on me or tell me what I have to do.”
Solskjaer has just affirmed the club is intending to have plunked down talks with Cavani over his future – a demonstration of the extraordinary effect he has made in a concise spell.
As a player who has won seven association titles in his recognized vocation, which took in spells in his local Uruguay, Italy, and France, alongside highlighting in eight significant global competitions, United’s energetic threesome of Marcus Rashford, Mason Greenwood, and Anthony Martial have an extraordinary wellspring of involvement to gain from.
