After agreeing a new one-year deal, the veteran striker has struggled with injuries this term and looks set to depart when his contract expires in June.

Barcelona have been linked with a swoop for the ex-Paris Saint-Germain star.

Now Italian transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has offered an update on his future.

And he claims that a switch to Spain is highly likely for him this summer.

He allegedly wants a ‘new experience’ and is pushing to play in LaLiga for the first time in his career. 

Romano adds that Spain is his ‘priority’ – but he is not short of offers from elsewhere.

Cavani also has a number of clubs from South America chasing his services.

However, Romano added that a transfer to Argentina’s River Plate is ‘no way’ happening.
