Manchester United are exploring the possibility of signing Edinson Cavani from Paris Saint-Germain this month, claims The Daily Telegraph.

Cavani has entered the final six months of his current PSG contract and has already been told he will not be offered a new deal.

The Uruguay international has dropped completely out of favour under Thomas Tuchel this season and wants to leave the club this month.

Chelsea and Atletico Madrid are currently vying for his signature but United have now entered the race, albeit with caution.
