Edinson Cavani

Edinson Cavani stood out as a Uruguayan forward through his off-the-ball movement, aerial play and effort for the team. He had important spells at Napoli, Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United. In the box, he anticipated crosses and found spaces between the defenders, but he also dropped back to help recover the ball. With the national team of Uruguay he won the Copa América in 2011, in a generation with many valuable strikers.
