Romano confirms Edinson Cavani will join Valencia on a two-year contract
Valencia are in a transitional moment following the appointment of Gennaro Gattuso this summer, replacing Jose Bordalas. They’ve won one and lost one of their opening two fixtures so far this season and play the third at Mestalla against Atletico Madrid tonight. They’re currently sitting 14th in La Liga.
Cavani, 35, will bring a wealth of experience to Mestalla if the deal goes through. Born in Salto, Uruguay, he began his career with Danubio before coming to Europe with Palermo in 2007. He’s remained ever since, representing Napoli, Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United with distinction since and earning 133 caps for the Uruguayan national team, scoring 58 goals.
Romano:
Edinson Cavani to Valencia, here we go! Verbal agreement in place on two year contract — been told Cavani will arrive in Valencia today, so traveling from Madrid.Barring any last minute changes, he will sign the contract with Valencia within 24h.
