Corinthians are at the head of the queue to sign Manchester United forward Edinson Cavani on a free transfer, according to a report.

Corinthians are reportedly at the head of the queue to sign Manchester United forward Edinson Cavani on a free transfer at the end of the 2021-22 campaign.

The 34-year-old will complete the season at Old Trafford despite strongly being linked with a January exit.

The striker's contract with Ralf Rangnick's side will expire at the end of June, though, and he is expected to leave the English giants in search of pastures new.

According to AS, Cavani was unsettled by Cristiano Ronaldo's arrival last summer, which is one of the main reasons why he considered leaving Man United during the winter market.

The report claims that Barcelona are no longer interested in the Uruguay international despite being strongly linked with his services last month.

Corinthians are allegedly at the head of the queue for the experienced forward, but there is also said to be interest from Argentine clubs River Plate and Boca Juniors.

Cavani did not feature in Man United's FA Cup defeat to Championship side Middlesbrough on Friday night, having been granted additional time off due to his involvement for Uruguay over the international break.
