Man Utd, Arsenal target Cavani breaks silence on PSG future and going AWOL

Edinson Cavani says he's willing to play out his contract with PSG.

Fined for going AWOL from a winter training camp this month, Cavani was back in the PSG line-up on the weekend for the victory over Evian.

"I had problems on my return flight, but above all, it was my decision to stay and I knew it could have consequences. I wanted to stay with my family. I paid for it and I think I'm paying today.

"Sometimes we make these kind of decisions."

Cavani has been linked with Real Madrid, Arsenal and Manchester United since his row with PSG management.

But he now insists: "I think that I'll honor my contract (which runs until June 2018). I am in one of the best teams in the world, given the players and the project.

"PSG has raised hopes in L1, through its project. In football, you never know what can happen, but I'm glad I'm here."
