Manchester United revolutionized the transfer market after hiring Cristiano Ronaldo. The problem, is that there is a forward who does not feel comfortable and wants to change the air: Edinson Cavani.

It is not the first time that this has been talked about and it was inevitable from the first moment that Cristiano Ronaldo signed with Manchester United. Edinson Cavani's anger at the club over the arrival of CR7 speaks volumes and is no longer hidden. The Uruguayan feels marginalized, overshadowed and forgotten after a great season.

Before the Copa América starts, Cavani was one step away from playing for Boca Juniors but ended up rejecting it because Manchester United managed to convince him to stay and extended his contract until 2022. However, since Ronaldo arrived, everything changed. Cavani lost prominence, ownership and even number 7, which was requested by Ronaldo.

Cavani's situation changed so much that on the last day of the transfer market, he was linked to Inter Milan, Juventus and FC Barcelona. However, he decided to stay at Old Trafford. The truth is that in the next market, Cavani would come out because he no longer feels as important as before. Where will his career continue?
