Cavani wonder goal sets new Premier League record

The Uruguayan’s magnificent effort took him to 10 goals in 26 league games this campaign, with four of those coming since the beginning of April.

Cavani, who signed a new contract with United last week, has established himself as a cult figure at Old Trafford, and that was only rubberstamped as he became the first Red since Scott McTominay in March 2020 to score with Reds fans in attendance at the Theatre of Dreams.

Edi’s top-flight tally means he is the 25th different United player to net double figures in a league season since 1992 which, according to Opta, moves us one clear of Arsenal in the Premier League rankings.
