Sometimes, when there are no official news, certain things happen and the media find out what they needed to know. And that’s exactly what happened to Edinson Cavani and his apparent transfer to Barcelona. It’s not a secret that the Catalonians are looking a striker (among other positions) in the upcoming transfer window, mainly due to Sergio Aguero’s early retirement, and the Uruguayan is a good candidate, but nobody knew about that, until one famous Argentinian club called to ask about his services. 🚨🚨[ @TNTSportsAR🥇] | Edinson Cavani will end his contract with Manchester United to become a Barcelona player. #fcblive pic.twitter.com/bM0xKB326D— BarçaTimes (@BarcaTimes) December 16, 2021 Boca Juniors is thinking about 2022 and strengthening the team for Libertadores and everything else that the new season brings. One of the biggest clubs in Argentina tried to make a maneuver similar to the one from the summer of 2015, when they managed to return Carlos Tevez from European to South American football. Now, Boca have been targeting Edinson Cavani, but, he rejected them, giving the explanation that he is coming to Barcelona in January to fill the gap left by Kun Aguero. The claims were made by Tyc sports, along with Ole, one of the two largest and most influential sports media in Argentina. Another veteran at the door: Alexis Sanchez could return only if…The Uruguayan’s contract expires at the end of the season, and since the Red Devils are already crowded with offensive players, and none of them is playing much, due to arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo, who is in fantastic form, it was obvious that Cavani would ‘jump ship’ in January. It is clear that Cavani would be a transitional solution at the age of 35, and United would probably agree to release him six months before the expiration of his contract without minor compensation in order to relieve the payroll and the payroll.(1.38) BARCELONA (5.20) ELCHE (9.00)Cavani obviously estimated that his goal-scoring spark is even worse and that he still has something to show in the biggest clubs in the League Five. If his compatriot Luis Suarez, at the age of 34, after being declared redundant in Barcelona, could win the title with Athletic as one of the most important figures, why couldn’t ‘Matador’ help Barca get out of the crisis at least a little until the end? He is still better than the likes of Luuk De Jong and Martin Braithwaite. Cavani combined only 274 minutes of football in the Premier and the Champions League this season with United. On the last day of the summer transfer window, the Red Devils offered Cavani to Barca in the form of a one-year loan. The Catalonians then had a problem with high salaries, so they decided to be economical, but they got one big nothing from Seville’s Luuk de Jong.
