Edinson Cavani has impressed since signing for Manchester United on a free transfer, but the Uruguayan striker could be on his way out of the club at the end of the season.
Speculation surrounding his future has dominated the back pages, with his father Luis confirming that the veteran striker is looking to move to Boca Juniors later this year.
In an interview with TYC Sports (quotes via Sky Sports), Luis told an Argentinian broadcaster that his son wishes to return to South America for the twilight years of his career.
"There's a 60 per cent chance of Edinson coming to South America. We're very excited. He's really endeared himself to everyone and has made friendships."
"But he doesn't feel comfortable where he is at the moment. He's been thinking about being closer to his family for over two years now and that's the reason why I think Edi will end up playing for a club in South America."
"I'd like him to join a team that has a chance of winning something. Here in Uruguay there's no chance of that happening."
"We've spoken to Edinson and he's always leant towards Boca Juniors because he's had so many conversations with (manager Juan Roman) Riquelme about it."
Cavani's Manchester United adventure to end this summer
The former Paris Saint-Germain striker could leave at the end of the season, but he has made quite an impact at Old Trafford already. Cavani has scored ten goals in 31 appearances across all competitions and looks set to play a key role for Manchester United in the coming weeks.
On that note, here are five players the Red Devils could sign to replace the experienced striker.
#5 Patson Daka | Red Bull Salzburg
Patson Daka is the latest product of RB Salzburg's talent factory. The 22-year-old has been in stunning form in front of goal for the past 12 months and looks set to follow the likes of Erling Haaland and Takumi Minamino in making big moves to top European clubs.
Renowned for his predatory instincts and finishing ability, Daka has notched up a staggering 30 goals and 10 assists across 34 appearances in all competitions for the Austrian side.
Manchester United have been linked with him in the past few months, but the Red Devils are unlikely to have a free run at the 22-year-old. Several other Premier League sides like Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester City have also been credited with an interest, so a bidding war could be on the cards for the talented striker.
#4 Danny Ings | Southampton
Since swapping Liverpool for Southampton, Danny Ings has been one of the most consistent strikers in the Premier League. The England international has featured 28 times for the Saints this season and managed to rack up ten goals and four assists in all competitions despite being hampered by injuries.
Ings is a tireless worker off the ball and is also one of the most instinctive finishers in the country. The 28-year-old is a vital cog in Ralph Hasenhuttl's side and could well look to secure a big-money move this summer.
His Liverpool connection will definitely be on the minds of the Manchester United hierarchy, but Ings is unlikely to reject advances from the Red Devils if they decide to make a move for him at the end of the season.

#3 Andre Silva | Eintracht Frankfurt
Andre Silva's career stagnated a bit after his failed move to Inter Milan, but the Portuguese striker has enjoyed a stunning renaissance with Eintracht Frankfurt in the Bundesliga. With a mouth-watering tally of 24 goals and nine assists in all competitions for Adi Hutter's side this season, Silva has established himself as one of the hottest attackers on the planet and turned quite a few heads across Europe.
Manchester United have been linked with his signature, with the 24-year-old tipped to complete a move to a bigger club this summer. At the age of 25, he has his prime well ahead of him and could become a world-class player if he chooses his next club properly.
Silva could be an intriguing addition to a Manchester United attack that already boasts the likes of Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Mason Greenwood.
#2 Erling Haaland | Borussia Dortmund
Manchester United hold a long-standing interest in Erling Haaland, who has quickly become one of the most feared attackers of the modern game. The Norwegian goal machine was heavily linked with a move to Old Trafford in January 2020 but opted to move to Borussia Dortmund to continue his development away from the spotlight.
In the current campaign, Haaland has scored 35 goals across 36 appearances in all competitions and has also managed to notch up 10 assists. The 20-year-old set the stage on fire in the UEFA Champions League with 10 goals before suffering elimination in the quarterfinals against Manchester City.
He is represented by norotious agent Mino Raiola, who has already begun sounding out potential suitors ahead of a summer transfer. Manchester United are expected to be in the running for him, but it remains to be seen if Haaland prefers a move to the Premier League ahead of the big guns in Real Madrid and Barcelona.
#1 Harry Kane | Tottenham Hotspur
Harry Kane has enjoyed another outstanding campaign in front of goal, as the England captain looks set to win his third Premier League Golden Boot. However, Tottenham Hotspur are likely to finish another season trophyless, due to which he the 27-year-old is reportedly keen to secure a transfer this summer.
Kane is yet to taste silverware as a professional footballer and might have to move on if he intends to have a glittering trophy cabinet before retirement. There have been reports that Spurs could sell him if he agitates for a move, but Daniel Levy is unlikely to entertain offers unless he receives an unbelievable sum for his prized asset.
Manchester United have been mentioned as a potential destination, while he has also been linked with a reunion with former Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino at Paris Saint-Germain.
With 31 goals and 16 assists across 43 appearances in all competitions, Kane's unique ability to score goals as well as create them has seen him gain plaudits universally. Only time will tell if he opts to remain in north London or move on to greener pastures at the end of the season.
