At the bottom of the transfer window, Manchester United struck with a real star signing. On Monday, Edinson Cavani (33), a former Napoli and Paris Saint-Germain star, was ready for the club.

Ole Gunnar Solskjær now has Cavani, plus Mason Greenwood, Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford and Odion Ighalo as first-place options.

But even though Cavani still has a great name and a good reputation in the world of football, he has had a difficult year. He has struggled with injuries, as well as being demoted to PSG. Players like Mauro Icardi seemed to be ahead of him in the front row.

Considered publication

In addition, he now reveals that he has been infected with the coronavirus. It happened in silence, and it is only now that he makes it known to the public.

– I wouldn’t achieve anything telling it. It was something we kept to ourselves, but I was going to tell it at some point. We (Cavani and his wife) stay home and take care of each other. We had many days in quarantine, longer than necessary. It was simply not necessary to tell, Cavani told the radio program “Dos de punta” according to the Uruguayan website Futbol.

I was fired, saved by a star

He says it was during a stay in Ibiza with various PSG stars that he received a crown. Players like Neymar, Angel Di Maria and Leandro Parades all came out and said they were infected.

Being infected affected Cavani so much that he considered quitting soccer.

– Of course, I considered the idea of ​​quitting football. It is true that I have thought about the possibility of leaving football and dedicating my life to the field, according to Goal.

But now he will try to take Solskjærs United to new heights. Their numbers are very impressive. At Napoli he scored 52 goals in 69 league games, while at PSG there were 138 goals in 200 league games.

This is what is called the “proven scorer” in England.

Difficult period

But he still arrives in England without a club. He was part of PSG all last season, but for a few weeks he was without a club. Besides United, he was also linked to Benfica in Portugal.

– I felt great insecurity and anxiety. Days went by and I saw that my family, my friends and everyone else wanted to know where to play. Now we are here, I am happy with the decision and now I just want to put on the suit, says the Uruguayan.

Cavani has some tough tracks to follow at United. He will wear the number 7 on the suit. Players like George Best, Eric Cantona, David Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo have used that number.

Cavani can make his United debut against Newcastle on October 17.
