Edinson Cavani 'to sign for Manchester United on Sunday'

Experienced striker Edinson Cavani will reportedly complete a move to Manchester United on Sunday.

The 33-year-old has been a free agent since leaving Paris Saint-Germain in June, and a number of clubs have been linked with his services over the last few months.

Benfica and Atletico Madrid are both believed to have been in contact with the Uruguay international, but according to The Guardian, the centre-forward is heading for Old Trafford.

The report claims that Cavani will travel to England on Sunday to undergo a medical with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side ahead of signing an initial one-year deal, with the option to extend for a further 12 months.

Personal terms and agent fees have allegedly already been agreed, meaning that United could announce the deal before or after their Premier League clash with Tottenham Hotspur.

Cavani is PSG's all-time leading goalscorer with 200 strikes in 301 appearances in all competitions.
