Currently at Manchester United, Edinson Cavani seems to be Xavi's priority to strengthen the FC Barcelona attack. But one element has totally relaunched the file …
Upon his arrival this fall, Xavi quickly pointed out the various sites to be settled as quickly as possible at FC Barcelona . Attack is one of them, as no number 9 seems to find favor in his eyes at the moment. Arrived this summer, Luuk de Jong could already leave and the knee of Martin Braithwaite would worry the medical staff, not to mention the recent forced retirement of Sergio Agüero. Thus, a goalscorer should surely land at Barça this winter and several names are already mentioned, including that of Edinson Cavani. Not really successful since the return of Cristiano Ronaldo to Manchester United, the former PSG is at the end of his contract and would obviously like to revive his career at FC Barcelona .
Manchester United refuses to release Cavani
The interest of this track seems to be precisely the fact that Edinson Cavani finds himself only a few months away from the end of his contract, since FC Barcelona would like to recruit him for free this winter. No way for Manchester United ! According to SPORT information, things would have cooled off around Cavani, since the leaders of Mancunia refused to release him from his contract this winter and would therefore claim compensation from Barça. Given the state of the club's accounts, Xavi may well be forced to find his striker elsewhere.
