Cavani began his career playing for
Cavani scored on his Uruguay debut against Colombia in 2008, and has since then earned 136 caps and scored 58 international goals, only behind strike partner Luis Suárez among Uruguayan internationals. He has participated in ten major international tournaments: four FIFA World Cups (2010, 2014, 2018 and 2022), five Copas América (2011, 2015, 2016, 2019 and 2021), and one FIFA Confederations Cup (2013). Cavani scored at the 2010 World Cup to help Uruguay to fourth place in the tournament, and in 2011 was part of the Uruguay squad that won a record fifteenth Copa América title. He finished as the CONMEBOL 2018 World Cup qualification top scorer with ten goals.

Club career
Palermo
To this day. Batistuta wasn't a typical striker. A powerful footballer who was incredibly effective in front of goal. I always tried to copy him.
—Cavani on his idol growing up, Gabriel Batistuta.[8]
After his breakthrough at the 2007 South American Youth Championship, several big teams were reportedly interested in signing Cavani, including
After Amauri's departure to Juventus in June 2008, Cavani cemented his place in the starting line-up, forming a striking partnership with Fabrizio Miccoli and scoring a total 14 goals in the 2008–09 season, earning the nickname "El Matador" due to his composure in front of goal.[15] He retained his place for the 2009–10 season under new boss Walter Zenga, and also under successor Delio Rossi, being instrumental in the team's successful run in Serie A which took Palermo to European qualification and potential qualification to the UEFA Champions League with two games remaining. In April 2010, he signed a new contract with Palermo valid to June 2014.[16]

2012–13: Serie A top scorer
Cavani's first goal of the Serie A season came on 26 August, netting the final goal of Napoli's 3–0 defeat of former club Palermo.[38] A month later, on 26 September, Cavani scored a mesmerising hat-trick against Lazio to maintain Napoli's undefeated start to the Serie A season in a 3–0 win.[39]
On 8 November, Cavani scored all four goals, including a half-volley from outside the box and a tremendous free kick, as Napoli came back from 2–1 down to defeat
Towards the end of the season, reports emerged that Cavani would leave Napoli, with Chelsea, Manchester City,
Paris Saint-Germain
On 16 July 2013, Cavani joined French champions Paris Saint-Germain on a five-year contract,[49] for a fee believed to be around €64 million,[50] making it the sixth largest transfer in history, at the time. The reported sum made Cavani the record signing in French football, breaking Radamel Falcao's €60 million move to Monaco earlier in the summer, and saw him link up with former Napoli teammate Ezequiel Lavezzi in Paris.[51]
2013–14: debut season
Cavani debuted for PSG on 9 August, coming on as a 72nd-minute substitute for Lavezzi in a league match against Montpellier.[52] He started the following game on 18 August and scored his first goal for the club, a late equaliser against Ajaccio.[53]
Cavani scored his first Champions League goal for the club in their European season opener against Olympiacos on 17 September.[54] He ended the group stage with four goals from five matches as PSG qualified with a 100% win record.[54]
On 22 January 2014, Cavani scored his 20th goal of the season in PSG's 2–1 Coupe de France defeat at home to Montpellier.[55] On 2 March, after missing a month of the season with a thigh injury, Cavani scored on his return to the team in a 2–0 win over Le Classique rivals Marseille at the Parc des Princes.[56]
On 19 April, he scored both goals for PSG as they beat
2014–16: back-to-back domestic quadruples
Cavani scored a penalty to secure a 3–1 win at Lens on 17 October 2014, and celebrated by shooting an imaginary bow and arrow. Referee Nicolas Rainville booked him for this, and sent him off for dissent after Cavani complained about it. PSG club president Nasser Al-Khelaifi said to Canal+, "Why did he get the yellow card before? He always celebrates the same way."[58] On 5 November 2014, it took Cavani 56 seconds to score the only goal of the game against Cypriot club APOEL, a result which put PSG into the Champions League knock-out stage with two games to spare.[59]
In January 2015, Cavani and Ezequiel Lavezzi were fined and suspended for two matches by PSG manager
Cavani and PSG kicked off the season against Lyon for the
2016–18: Ligue 1 Player of the Year, back-to-back Golden Foot
On 13 September 2016, in the opening 2016–17 Champions League Group A match against Arsenal at the Parc des Princes, Cavani scored after just 44 seconds had elapsed in the first half by heading in Serge Aurier's cross from the right for PSG's fastest-ever Champions League goal. The match ended in a 1–1 draw.[66] On 16 September, Cavani scored four times (his first ever four-goal haul with PSG) in the first half as PSG trounced Caen 6–0 away in a Ligue 1 match to end PSG's streak of three competitive matches without victory, two of them in Ligue 1.[67][68] On 30 November, he scored a penalty in a 2–0 home win against Angers to take his Ligue 1 tally to 14 goals in 14 matches,[69] which also saw him become only the fourth player in PSG history to score 100 competitive goals for the club.[70]
Cavani scored one goal in each leg of PSG's 6–5 aggregate loss to FC Barcelona in their UEFA Champions League round of 16 tie, taking him to eight goals from eight matches in the season's competition. On 1 April 2017, he scored two-second-half goals in PSG's 4–1 win over Monaco in the 2017 Coupe de la Ligue Final.[71] On 15 May 2017, he was named Ligue 1 Player of the Year for scoring 35 goals.[7]
Prior to the 2017–18 season, Cavani was joined at the club by Brazilian forward Neymar, who moved to PSG in a transaction worth €222 million making him the world's most expensive player,[72] and 18-year-old French prodigy Kylian Mbappé, a loan signing with the club having an option to sign him for €180 million.[73] Cavani, Neymar and Mbappé immediately formed a formidable attacking trio, with Cavani scoring in each of PSG's opening three games of the 2017–18 UEFA Champions League group stage, twice in the team's 5–0 win at Celtic, once in the 3–0 win at home to Bayern Munich, and once in the 4–0 win at Anderlecht.[74][75][76]
On 22 October, Cavani scored a curling free kick off the crossbar to earn PSG a 2–2 draw in Le Classique away to Marseille.[77] The following month, he scored twice in the return leg against Celtic in a 7–1 win. The result saw PSG break the record for the most goals scored by a club in the group stages of the Champions League, with 24.[78] On 4 November, Cavani's goals in a 5–0 win at Angers made him only the third player to score 100 times in two of Europe's five best leagues, after Ibrahimović and Gonzalo Higuaín.[79]
Cavani became PSG's all-time top scorer on 27 January 2018 with a goal in a 4–0 home win over Montpellier. He surpassed Zlatan Ibrahimović's record with his 157th goal in his 229th match.[80] On 8 May 2018, he scored as PSG won 2–0 against Les Herbiers VF to clinch the 2017–18 Coupe de France.[81]
2018–20: Final seasons in Paris
On 25 August 2018, Cavani played his first game of the season after missing PSG's first three games following his injury at the 2018 World Cup. The front three of Cavani, Neymar and Mbappé all scored in a 3–1 league win over Angers at home, with Cavani scoring the opener from Neymar's assist.[82] On 11 November 2018, Cavani scored a hat-trick in a 4–0 win over Monaco.[83] On 18 December, Cavani scored in PSG's 2–1 win over Orléans in the Coupe de La Ligue; this was his 15th goal all-time in the competition, tying Pauleta's record for most goals in the tournament.[84]
In April 2020, PSG were assigned the 2019–20 Ligue 1 title after the season was ended prematurely due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic; at the time of the League's suspension, PSG were in first place, with a twelve–point lead over second-placed Marseille.[85] On 13 June, PSG's sporting director Leonardo revealed that Cavani would be leaving the club at the end of the Champions League campaign in August, alongside his teammate Thiago Silva.[86] However, it was later revealed that, unlike Silva, Cavani had refused a short-term two-month contract extension that would allow him to see out the rest of the delayed Champions League campaign (including the final), the Coupe de la Ligue final and the Coupe de France final, and he left the club upon the expiry of his original contract on 30 June.[87]
Manchester United
2020–21: debut season and Europa League runner-up
On 5 October 2020, Cavani joined Premier League club Manchester United on a one-year deal with an option to extend for a further year.[88][89] He was given the prestigious number 7 shirt.[90] On 24 October, he made his Premier League debut from the bench in a 0–0 draw against Chelsea.[91] On 7 November, Cavani scored his first goal in the Premier League in a 3–1 away win against Everton.[92] On 29 November, Cavani scored twice, including the winning goal in added time, in a 3–2 comeback win against Southampton after coming on as a half time substitute.[93]
On 2 February 2021, he scored the fourth goal in United's Premier League record-equalling 9–0 win against Southampton.[94] On 29 April, he scored twice and assisted two more goals in a 6–2 home win over Roma in the first leg of the Europa League semi-finals;[95] he scored another two in a 3–2 defeat in the return leg, which allowed United to advance to the final 8–5 on aggregate.[96] Across April, Cavani scored five goals and collected three man of the match award from four starts which lead to him winning his first Manchester United player of the month award.[97]
On 10 May, Cavani officially extended his stay for another season.
2021–22: final season in England
Even though Cavani played his first match of the 2021–22 season against Wolverhampton Wanderers in the number 7 shirt, upon the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo, he agreed to switch to the number 21 shirt, the same number he wears for the Uruguay national team.[102] He scored his first goal of the season, in a 3–0 away win on 30 October against Tottenham Hotspur, assisted by Ronaldo.[103]
On 22 May 2022, interim-manager Ralf Rangnick announced that Cavani would be leaving the club when his contract expired at the end of season.[104]

Cavani was one of the three over-age players selected by Uruguay for the 2012 Summer Olympics.[117]
At the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup, Cavani equalised in the semi-final against the hosts and eventual champions Brazil, who eventually won 2–1.[118] In the match for third place, he equalised twice against Italy, his second goal coming from a free kick, taking the game to penalties. Although Cavani scored his spot kick, Uruguay lost; he was named man of the match for his performance.[119]
On 13 November 2013, Cavani scored the last goal in Uruguay's 5–0 away win over Jordan in a play-off for the 2014 World Cup.[120] In their first group game of the finals, against Costa Rica in Fortaleza, Cavani opened the scoring with a penalty after Diego Lugano had been pulled down. Uruguay, however, eventually lost 3–1.[121] Uruguay were eliminated by Colombia, following a 2–0 defeat in the round of 16 on 28 June 2014.[122]

In his nation's final group game of the 2018 FIFA World Cup on 25 June, Cavani scored Uruguay's final goal in a 3–0 win over hosts Russia.[142] Cavani then went on to score both of Uruguay's goals against Portugal in a 2–1 victory in the Round of 16 on 30 June,[143] though he was withdrawn in the second-half with an apparent hamstring injury.[144][145] Because of his injury, he was ruled out of Uruguay's 2–0 defeat to France in the quarter-finals on 6 July.[146]
2019 Copa América
In March 2019, manager Óscar Tabárez included Cavani in the final 23-man Uruguay squad for the 2019 Copa América in Brazil.[147] On 16 June, Cavani scored "an acrobatic bicycle-kick" in a 4–0 win over Ecuador in the team's opening group match of the tournament;[148] this was his first goal ever in the Copa América.[149] In the quarter-finals against Peru on 29 June, he had a goal disallowed by VAR for offside in regulation time; following a 0–0 draw, the match went to a penalty shoot-out. Although Cavani was able to convert his spot-kick, Peru won the shoot-out 5–4, which saw Uruguay eliminated from the competition.[150]
Style of play
A quick, strong, opportunistic and prolific forward with good technique, and a tall, slender frame, Cavani is considered to be one of the greatest strikers of his generation, and has been described as a "modern striker".[151][152][153][154][155] Possessing an excellent first touch, intelligent movement off the ball, and clinical finishing, he is a well-rounded striker,[156][157][158] who is known for his ability to score impressive goals, both with his head and with his feet, and for his tireless work-rate and energy across the pitch, as well as his willingness to track back and help his team defensively; moreover, he is an athletic player, who is also strong in the air, and who has a penchant for scoring from acrobatic goals. He is also an accurate set-piece taker,[159][160][161][162][163] and is generally a competent penalty taker, even though his record from the spot has been inconsistent at times throughout his career.[164]
In addition to his goalscoring, he is also known for his ability to create space for his teammates.
Like his idol, Argentine striker Gabriel Batistuta, Cavani often celebrates scoring a goal by pretending to fire an imaginary machine gun; he has also celebrated goals by pretending to shoot a bow and arrow.[8][58][179][180][181]
Personal life
Cavani was born in Salto, Uruguay on 14 February 1987 to Luis Cavani and Berta Gómez.[182][183] His elder brothers, striker Walter Guglielmone[184] and Christian Cavani, are also professional footballers.[185] Cavani holds an Italian passport as a result of playing in Italy and his Italian heritage; Cavani's paternal grandparents were originally from Maranello. In 1929, they migrated to Argentina and later to Montevideo.[186] Cavani is trilingual; he is fluent in Spanish, Italian and French.[187]
Cavani was married to Maria Soledad Cabris Yarrús, with whom he has two sons, Bautista (born 22 March 2011) and Lucas (born 8 March 2013).[188] In 2013, Cavani announced that he and his wife were to get a divorce, following a split between the two the year before.[189] Then he had a daughter, India (born 17 May 2019), with his girlfriend Jocelyn Burgardt.[190]
He is a devout Evangelical Christian.[191] As a child, Cavani idolised Argentine striker Gabriel Batistuta.[180] Cavani also enjoys ballet dancing.[192] His resemblance with the cartoon character Tarzan is a popular reference among football fans.
