Ole Solskjaer is eager to keep Edinson Cavani at Manchester United for one more season.
The Uruguayan’s arrival from PSG on a free transfer has been a grand success.
He scored twice against AS Roma to help United win the first leg Europa League semi-final tie.
Solskjaer said in his post-match press conference, “Manchester United will do ‘everything they can’ to keep Edinson Cavani. The board and everyone in the club want Edi to stay – as they told him in last meeting. Solskjaer is pushing with the player.
“Cavani will communicate his decision after speaking with his family.”
OGS wants Cavani to stay: “Worked really hard to get back fit. He knows my feelings. He knows I would love to have him here. I promised him Old Trafford is a different place with fans. I am doing my best. Hopefully we will see him here for another year.”

Cavani is on a lucrative deal of around £10m-per-year at Old Trafford. United will have to cut down the squad this summer to make room for the new but Cavani fully deserves to stay. He has been lethal in front of goal and clearly still has plenty of football left in his boots.
