Was Cavani simply showing appreciation to the fans that sing his chant? Or was this really Cavani’s final appearance in a red shirt at Old Trafford?

Time will tell but United fans can be forgiven for fearing the worst.

Can Man Utd afford to lose Cavani in January?

Man Utd have often looked a significantly better team over the past one-and-a-half seasons with Cavani upfront.

The Uruguay international has scored 19 goals in 49 appearances for the Red Devils - an average return for a striker of his calibre - but has become a firm fan favourite thanks to his incredible work ethic.

Unless United sign a first-class centre-forward to replace him, the potential loss of Cavani would be a huge loss for interim manager Ralf Rangnick.
