Man Utd Transfers: 5 Replacements For Robin Van Persie

5. Edinson Cavani

Cavani Edinson Cavani is one of the best strikers out there at the moment and has lit up Serie A with his 25 goals in 23 appearances for Napoli so far this season. He has bagged a grand total 91 goals out of 118 appearances for the Italian side, helping them surge up to second place in the table just three points behind Juventus. United were linked with his signature back in 2011 but nothing came to fruition. However, when you consider that Wayne Rooney hasn't exactly been in electric form this season, and that Danny Welbeck has toiled of late, then a move for Cavani doesn't seem like such a bad idea all of a sudden. Arsenal are also interested and the player is valued at £30 million. Source(s): Daily Mail
