Monza challenge Salernitana for ex-Man Utd striker Cavani

Former Manchester United striker Edinson Cavani is in talks with Serie A new boys Monza.

The Uruguay striker, 35, needs regular football to boost his World Cup hopes following his release by United last month.

Sky Italia says say Monza director Adriano Galliani is keen on Cavani's experience for their first season back in the top-flight.

Salernitana, who finished fourth bottom in Serie A last term, have also come in for Paris Saint-Germain's record scorer.

Their club president believes Cavani would be a "dream signing".

He netted just twice for United as a fringe player in his injury-hit 2021-22 campaign, following 17 goals the previous season.
