After an outstanding first season at Manchester United, Uruguayan striker Edinson Cavani looks set for another season at Old Trafford. Let’s take a look at why keeping him in Solskjaer’s set up was the right decision for Man United.

Let’s start with the obvious: the short term.
Despite being 34, Edinson Cavani is still an elite level striker with a very different skill set to the other forwards at the club. Other than Cavani, United’s first team options to play through the middle are Mason Greenwood, Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford.
This trio are all more in the mould of Inside Forwards than out and out strikers. Whilst they’ve all operated through the middle, the majority of their best performances have come from the wide positions where they’re given more space and freedom to operate in.

Cavani is also one of the best strikers in the world with his head. In fact across Europe’s Top 5 Leagues this season, no player has scored more goals per 90 with their head than Cavani (500+ minutes) with two thirds of his Premier League goals coming with his head (6/9). This gives United a genuine aerial threat that they can send crosses towards and is something the other forwards simply cannot offer. Remarkably, Cavani (six) has scored more headed goals this season than Greenwood (one), Rashford (three) and Martial (five) have managed in their Premier League careers.

So in the short term, Cavani offers a totally different kind of striker to the one that United have on their books and like we suggested in this video *point above left shoulder to card*, is Solskjaer’s perfect kind of striker. Another striker who Ole would love to have at his disposal would be Harry Kane or Erling Braut Haaland. Both would be excellent additions to the Manchester United squad but over on the BRAND NEW STATMAN DAVE CLIPS CHANNEL, I dive into who would be a better fit for Solskjaer’s side.
