Edinson Cavani will sign a 12-month contract extension with Manchester United until June 2022, according to a report.

Edinson Cavani will reportedly extend his contract at Manchester United for a further 12 months.

The Uruguay international's current deal at Old Trafford is due to expire at the end of June, and various reports have suggested that he is keen to return to South America this summer.

Boca Juniors have been strongly linked with the experienced forward, but according to ESPN, Cavani has now made the decision to sign a one-year extension with the Red Devils until June 2022.

The report claims that Man United could make an announcement next week, with the club's head coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer revealing on Thursday night that he was working to persuade the forward to stay.

The 34-year-old has been in impressive form since arriving on a free transfer last October, scoring 12 times and contributing five assists in 33 appearances in all competitions.

Cavani scored twice and provided two assists as Man United recorded a 6-2 win over Roma in the first leg of their Europa League semi-final on Thursday evening.
