Report have continued to show that Manchester United striker Edinson Cavani has emerged as a potential January target for Barcelona,
in the next transfer window

It was generally noted that the Uruguayan has seen limited playing time this season with Cristiano Ronaldo preferred ahead of him up front for now.

Startistics have it that he recently started in a front two alongside the Portuguese, but there is still uncertainty over his place in the line up which is currently dominated by the CR7.

Based on inhouse report which shows that Cavani will enter the final six months of his deal in January and it is believed that the Blaugrana will push to sign him for a nominal fee.

It is unclear whether United will enter the prospect of losing the marksman midway through the campaign without a replacement.

They have adequate options in the ranks with Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford and Mason Greenwood capable of leading the line also for the premier league giant.

However, none of them offer the same physical presence as Cavani up front. The Red Devils could risk losing him for free next summer.

Although Cavani signed a new one-year deal earlier this year after netting 17 goals last term. However, he would not have expected Ronaldo’s shock return.

Ronaldo has been an undisputed striker choice for the Manchester United this season with Cavani has often found himself on the substitutes’ bench.
