Manchester United have completed the signing of Uruguayan striker, Edinson Cavani, on a free transfer on Monday night.
The 33-year-old becomes the club’s third signing after Donny Van der Beek and Alex Telles from Ajax and Porto respectively.
The Uruguay international joins on a one-year contract with the option to extend for a further year, the clubs announced on its official website.
Edinson Cavani said: “Manchester United is one of the greatest clubs in the world, so it is a real honour to be here. I’ve worked really hard during the time off and I feel eager to compete and represent this incredible club.
“I have played in front of some of the most passionate supporters in football during my career and I know that it will be the same in Manchester. I cannot wait to experience the Old Trafford atmosphere when it is safe for the fans to return.
“I look forward to continuing to write my little story inside the book of football and I know that’s why my focus has to remain the same as always – work, work, work. I have had a conversation with the manager and this has increased my desire to wear this beautiful shirt.”
