Real Madrid have reportedly identified Manchester United forward Edinson Cavani as an alternative to Erling Braut Haaland.
On Monday evening, it was claimed that Manchester City had made the breakthrough in negotiations for the Borussia Dortmund frontman by agreeing personal terms with his representatives.
That has seemingly left the likes of Real and Paris Saint-Germain with a decision to make regarding their plans for 2022-23, particularly when they have other issues higher up their priority list.
Nevertheless, according to Fichajes, Los Blancos may be prepared to bring in Cavani on a short-term deal if they miss out on adding Haaland to their squad.
The 35-year-old has endured an injury-hit campaign at Old Trafford, making just seven starts and 11 substitute outings, and the veteran will depart at the end of his contract in June.
The report suggests that the Uruguay international, who has been strongly linked with a return to South America, may be accepting of a bit-part role at the Santiago Bernabeu, while Carlo Ancelotti is unlikely to be against adding further backup to his attacking ranks with Gareth Bale on his way out of the club. body check tags ::
