Edinson Cavani will leave Manchester United on a free transfer this summer to join a La Liga club, according to a report.

Edinson Cavani will reportedly leave Manchester United this summer to move to Spain.

The 35-year-old's contract at Old Trafford is due to expire at the end of June, and he is set to depart the 20-time English champions on a free transfer in search of pastures new.

There have been suggestions that the Uruguay international is keen to return to South America, with a number of Brazilian and Argentinian clubs linked with his services.

However, according to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, the striker wants to move to Spain, as he is keen to experience another of Europe's major leagues before he retires.

The report claims that Cavani has already received approaches from a number of La Liga clubs, although it is unclear whether Barcelona are still interested, having been linked with him in January.

The forward has been restricted to just 15 appearances for Man United during the 2021-22 campaign due to injury, scoring just twice and providing a single assist for the Premier League giants.

Cavani's last appearance for Ralf Rangnick's side came against Burnley on February 8, and he remains a major doubt for Sunday's Manchester derby with Manchester City.
