Man Utd striker Cavani welcomes interest from Xavi's Barcelona

Manchester United striker Edinson Cavani is ready to join Barcelona.

The Times says Cavani's deal expires in the summer, and he has ambitions of playing in La Liga before calling time on his career.

The Uruguay international believes he still has two years left at the top level, and wants to link up with Xavi at Barcelona.

Cavani joined the Red Devils in 2020 and signed a one-year extension in the summer.

But he seems unlikely to put pen-to-paper on another extension at Old Trafford with a move to Barcelona on the cards.

And with cash-strapped Barca targeting low-cost transfers, the free signing of Cavani is an attractive prospect.
