Transfer deadline day 2020: Edinson Cavani to Man Utd confirmed – live!

Rangers have completed the signing of South Africa international Bongani Zungu. He joins on loan from Amiens until the end of the season. Zungu is a long-time Liverpool fan and is looking forward to working with his hero Steven Gerrard. “I have studied the squad and feel I can come in and bring my attributes to help the team improve,” he says. “The chance to play for such a big club especially in European competitions is very exciting for me. I can’t wait to fly to Scotland and meet my new team mates. I know that I will settle in Glasgow and am looking forward to getting started as soon as possible. I really want the fans to be proud of my performances and will always give 100 per cent for my new team. Rangers is a global club and I know there are already many supporters across Africa. I am looking forward to playing in front of a big crowd and audiences across the world.”

More good news for Fulham! First a medical for Ruben Loftus-Cheek, now this from Jacob Steinberg: “Fulham are closing in on the signing of Lyon centre-back Joachim Andersen.”

The love is reciprocated, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer saying: “Edinson is an experienced ultimate professional who always gives everything for his team. His goalscoring record for club and country is fantastic and we are delighted to sign a player of his calibre. He’ll bring energy, power, leadership and a great mentality to the squad but, most importantly, he’ll bring goals. He has had a brilliant career so far, winning trophies at almost every club he has played for, and he still has so much more to give at the highest level. The opportunity for our young players to learn from one of Europe’s top goalscorers over the last 10 years is fantastic and it will really benefit them going forward. Edinson knows exactly what it takes to succeed and we are all looking forward to seeing him make an impact at Manchester United.”

Here’s what Cavani has had to say upon arrival at Old Trafford. “Manchester United is one of the greatest clubs in the world, so it is a real honour to be here. I’ve worked really hard during the time off and I feel eager to compete and represent this incredible club. I have played in front of some of the most passionate supporters in football during my career and I know that it will be the same in Manchester. I cannot wait to experience the Old Trafford atmosphere, when it is safe for the fans to return. I look forward to continuing to write my little story inside the book of football and I know that’s why my focus has to remain the same as always – work, work, work. I have had a conversation with the manager and this has increased my desire to wear this beautiful shirt.”

Manchester City and Barcelona might reach agreement on Eric Garcia, though. The young defender wants to return to Spain,…
