Cavani up for a Liga getaway

- BY SIMON MULLOCK

MANCHESTER UNITED striker Edinson Cavani is on Real Sociedad’s wanted list.

And the Uruguay veteran fancies a crack at La Liga after spending the best years of his career in Italy, France and England.

Cavani, 34, has been a disappoint­ment to United this season after agreeing to stay another year, on £200,000 a week.

He has scored 19 goals in 56 appearance­s for United since arriving from Paris Saint-Germain in October 2020 – but just two goals in 21 appearance­s this season.

Sociedad want to take him to Spain in the summer, but there is also interest from Inter Milan.

Argentine giants River Plate have also enquired about a move closer to his South American roots.

Cavani has held talks with Sociedad and liked what they had to offer.

The Spaniards have a history of signing Uruguayan players and have told Cavani he will get minutes on the pitch as they plan to sell Alexander Isak to Barcelona.
