Edinson Cavani will not continue playing in the “Old Continent”, and according to rumors, his next destination would be Mexican soccer. The Uruguayan striker, who played for 16 years in European teams, is now looking for new horizons, having had little participation in his last season with Manchester United.
It is likely that at 35 years old, the Uruguayan is no longer performing 100% as he did in the past, but there are those who consider that he still has quality to offer, at least in a league that is not as competitive as the Premier League.
Rumors suggest that Cavani will go from being the “Diablo Rojo” (the red devil) in England and will now be in Mexican soccer with Toluca.
The information that is running on TUDN and ESPN is that the player has already had some meetings with the scarlet team and that there is already an offer on the table from the president of the Mexican team, Francisco Suinaga. However, the player has not made a decision yet, as he is still waiting for an offer from European football.
Considering that the Qatar World Cup, which will take place in the coming months of November and December, will have the Uruguayan National Team as a participant, Edinson Cavani intends to be in a European club to continue being contemplated by the coach Diego Alonzo.
There are some that say that a team from La Liga in Spain could possibly be Toluca’s direct rival in seeking the services of the experienced striker, but it has also been said that Club América has already inquired about Cavani.
Edinson Cavani’s Options in Mexican Soccer
On May 23, Manchester United made the Uruguayan’s departure official after two years, although it was not a surprise. The “Matador” (the killer) played 59 games in all competitions played by the English team and recorded 19 goals and six assists.
His career began in 2005 with the Danubio FC of Uruguay and shortly after, for the 2006-07 season, he was already part of Palermo of the Serie A of Italy. His most successful stages were the three seasons with Napoli and, above all, the seven seasons with Paris Saint-Germain, a team with whom he won 22 titles.
This year, Edinson Cavani will write a new chapter in his history as a footballer, and we will have to wait to find out if he will do so in Mexico.
