Edinson Cavani is an Uruguayan international who currently plays for Manchester United in the Premier League. Cavani is without a doubt one of the most lethal strikers of this decade. The Uruguayan is known for his quality of making runs and getting off his markers which enables him to get into space and pull the trigger. The now 35-year-old was born on 14 February 1987 in Salto, Uruguay.
Arriving from the youth ranks of Danubio, Cavani was poached by the Italian side Palermo in 2007. His signing was announced by Palermo chairman Maurizio Zamparini on 27th January 2007. The number nine had a decent start to life in Italy as he went on to score 34 goals in four seasons at the club.
On 5 October 2020, Edinson Cavani joined Manchester United as a free agent. On 24 October, he made his debut against Chelsea. In his first season at Old Trafford, the striker found the net 19 times. This season, with the arrival of Ronaldo, Cavani has dropped down the pecking while his performances on the pitch are evident that the striker is now past his prime.
Palermo: Cavani made his club debut for Palermo on 11 march 2007 against Fiorentina.
Uruguay: On 6 February 2008, Cavani made his international debut against Columbia.
In 2010, Napoli signed Cavani on an initial loan deal which was later made permanent for €17 million. At Napoli, Cavani earned the nickname “El Matador” as he netted 33 goals each in his first two seasons followed by 38 in the third, a season in which he was awarded The Capocannoniere(Italian Golden Boot) for his tally of 29 league goals. During his time in Naples, Cavani won his first piece of silverware by lifting the Copa Italia in the 2011-12 season.
On 16 July 2013, Cavani moved to Paris Saint-Germain for €64 million which at the time was the most expensive signing in French football history. During his time in the French capital, Cavani added six Ligue 1 titles, five Coupes de la Ligue, and four Coupes de France to his trophy cabinet. Moreover, Cavani was named the Ligue 1 Player of the Year in 2016-17 and the league’s top scorer in 2016–17 and 2017–18 seasons consequently becoming the club’s record goalscorer.

In his initial years, Cavani wore number 7 for both Palermo and Napoli. At Paris Saint-Germain, he was given the classic number 9. In his first season for Manchester United, he once again donned the number 7 jersey but currently, he wears number 29 which he also commonly wears for Uruguay.
As of 2022, Cavani’s net worth stands at $40 Million. He currently earns £1 Million per month.
