‘Cavani is at a level many strikers can’t reach’ – Maguire lauds Manchester United’s ‘nightmare’ match-winner

Edinson Cavani is a frontman performing at a level that “not many strikers can reach” says Manchester United captain Harry Maguire, with the experienced Uruguayan considered to be a “nightmare” for defenders.

The Red Devils’ skipper knows all about those qualities from working with the 33-year-old forward every day in training.

Questions were asked of whether Cavani, in the latter stages of his career and having spent several weeks without a club after leaving Paris Saint-Germain over the summer, was cut out for life in the Premier League. He is, however, proving to be a shrewd addition for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
