It is brilliant information for United and a huge piece in what will end up being a special exchange window to come. With specialist Mino Raiola quick to move Erling Haaland on this mid-year, United may have felt compelled to move for him despite the fact that Dortmund’s price would have been galactic.
Since Cavani is remaining, United can pause for a minute or two and expectation that the Norwegian stays for one more season at Dortmund, after which his £65 million delivery proviso becomes effective.
Likewise, as was accounted for here yesterday, with the striker position settled, sources say United will switch their considerations back to Jadon Sancho.
This in itself will affect Haaland; Dortmund will neither need nor need to lose both in one summer, so the charge they get for the England man will more likely than not fortify their hand to keep hold of the Norwegian.
In any case, regardless of anything else, the news implies that United can depend on the a-list striker, one who has broken the scourge of the number 7 shirt since Ronaldo left, for another season. That will be music to chief Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s ears, just as those of the fans.
