Cavani’s future at Manchester United has come under the scanner since the arrival of 36-year-old forward Cristiano Ronaldo.
Manchester United are not looking to move him on, but rumours over his departure have emerged in the final hours of the transfer window.
Barcelona are reportedly in advanced talks with the striker and are trying to do a deal with Manchester United today.
But according to ESPN, Barcelona are not expected to sign the veteran forward on deadline day today.
Ronald Koeman is interested in bringing in one more striker but Cavani is not believed to be an option.
But for the moment, it seems Barcelona are not expected to get a deal done to sign the forward on the final day of the transfer window.
It appears Barcelona do not have enough time to secure a deal for the Manchester United striker today.
Cavani scored 17 times in his first season at Manchester United and decided to extend his stay by one more year in the summer.
