Cavani 'tells Manchester United to sign Nunez'
Manchester United have reportedly been advised to make an approach for Benfica forward Darwin Nunez by current player Edinson Cavani.
The Uruguayan legend will depart Old Trafford in the summer after an injury-hit two-year spell, ensuring that United will need to enter the market for a replacement.
At a time of transition for the Red Devils, a younger alternative will be signed, and it appears that Cavani wants United to go all out for his fellow countryman who is wanted by many top clubs in Europe.
According to 90 min, Cavani has talked up the ability of Nunez, a player who netted his 30th goal of the campaign in Benfica's Champions League tie at Liverpool on Wednesday night.
While United had already been admirers of Nunez, the report suggests that they are hopeful of Cavani's words acting as the difference-maker when it comes to the 22-year-old making a decision over his future.
Nunez, who is expected to cost in the region of £65m, has also been linked with the likes of Liverpool, Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain.
