The question is important since it was precisely this factor that kept the Uruguayan striker away from the Águilas , who were already sounding out the possibility of bringing him to Liga MX and thus having the signing of the decade since the player would have been the top star. in Mexican soccer in a long time.

Therefore, the club kept sounding in different leagues, and apparently, another top player who is about to become a free player appeared on their radar, so they came up with the idea of getting him.

Who is the other Uruguayan player Club América dreams of?

The player is none other than Edinson Cavani, a senior international with the Uruguayan national soccer team and Manchester United striker, who will be a free player on June 30, 2022, as the Red Devils will not renew him.

And they are not going to renew him because in the last United season the Uruguayan was practically erased from the starting eleven by the return of Cristiano Ronaldo to the club, who became the scorer of the team and the reference in the attack.

And as a result of this, the player was seeing how little by little he was running out of minutes on the field as the days went by so that even the Red Devils fans began to be hostile towards him. 

And this caused that, after what would be his last game with Manchester United this week, against Crystal Palace, an event that tarnished the player's presence at the club.

Cavani was confronted by some fans of the club who insulted him, and he returned the insult by showing them the middle finger, which made it clear that the player no longer wants to be in the team, which in turn does not want to renew him .

Therefore, the player would be free in this summer transfer window, so without having to pay for his transfer to United, Cavani would be practically a bargain for any team, including Club America.

But can the club afford Cavani's salary?

Will Club América have enough money to sign Edinson Cavani?

This is unlikely as Cavani's last salary at Manchester United was just over $11 million, so the possibility would be a real challenge for the Eagles. 

This is because despite their economic might, the Eagles pay $4.5 million per season to their most prized player, goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa.

Therefore, it is very hard for Club America to keep Edinson Cavani in their ranks, due to the huge salary he earns.
