Posted on December 7, 2021 at 1:00 p.m. by AC Looking for a number 9, Xavi could well attract Edinson Cavani to FC Barcelona … but he is not alone! With a Luuk from Jong disappointing and an injured Martin Braithwaite , FC Barcelona's priority for this winter has been found. Xavi wants a top striker this winter and the faster the better, since the euphoria surrounding his arrival has already subsided with the defeat against Real Bétis (0-1), in La Liga . Several names have been mentioned by the Catalan press in recent weeks, including that of Edinson Cavani who returns regularly. The former Paris Saint-Germain is going through a difficult time at Manchester United and at 34, he could decide to give his career a new boost. An interest confirmed this Tuesday by Tuttosport, which however puts several caveats in this file. The Italian daily stresses in particular that Edinson Cavani's salary of € 12m per year makes his arrival in Turin simply impossible. In addition, with his 34 years, he does not seem to fit into the project imposed by the Bianconeri leaders and which is based on young talents, if possible Italian.
