Ole Gunnar Solskjaer backs "meticulous" Edinson Cavani to continue for years

The 33-year-old has made a big impression at Old Trafford.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been delighted by Edinson Cavani’s impact at Manchester United and believes the veteran striker still has years left at the top.

Concerns over the shrewdness of signing a 33-year-old on deadline day after months without a club have been extinguished during the Uruguay international’s promising start to life at the 20-time league champions.

Cavani has made an impact on and off the pitch for United, scoring four goals in 13 appearances since signing a season-long deal with the option of another year.

It seems a matter of when rather than if the Red Devils trigger that extension clause – like they have done with so many other contracts in recent times – and Solskjaer believes Cavani can shine for a few seasons yet.

The England centre-back is a key part of the United backline and has improved greatly since a difficult start to the season that came under the cloud of his high-profile Greek court case.

“Harry is a strong character and a very good player,” Solskjaer said of Maguire.

“He has led from the back, if you put it that way. He has been putting himself forward. He always wants to play. He never wants a rest.

“He’s really improved throughout the season, with the team of course, but we can see more and more maturity and more leadership from Harry every game.”
