Edinson Cavani wants to play in Spain before the end of his career, with Barcelona being his preferred destination despite links to Real Madrid. The Uruguay international's current contract expires next June and he is keen to join the La Liga giants on a free transfer next summer. According to The Times, Cavani wants to join Barcelona next summer, with the former Napoli forward confident that he can play at the top level for at least two more seasons. Moreover, the arrivals of Cristiano Ronaldo and Jadon Sancho has increased competition for a place in the Red Devils' forward line. He was also linked with a move to Real, with the La Liga club's president Florentino Perez viewing Cavani as a short-term fix until they move for Kylian Mbappe next summer.
