Edinson Cavani will not be available for Manchester United's opening game of the season against Leeds United, says Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
“Edi is in the country,”
said Ole. “[But] he’s just finishing off his isolation period. He’s had a little bit of extra time for personal reasons.
“Eric and Amad are also in the country waiting to get the all-clear to join the team again. They’ve had a very exciting summer of course, been in the Olympics [and] played games before that as well, so they should be fit before they come.”
That impressive form led to the legendary forward agreeing to extend his stay at Old Trafford for a further year.
Our no.7 shared an Instagram post from his home on Thursday, confirming that he had returned to the United Kingdom ahead of the 2021/22 campaign.
