MADRID (AP) — Valencia signed veteran Uruguay striker Edinson Cavani on a two-year contract on Monday.
The 35-year-old Cavani had been without a club since his contract with Manchester United expired at the end of last season.
He previously also played for Paris Saint-Germain, Napoli and Palermo.
Cavani was at Valencia’s Mestalla Stadium as the team lost to Atlético Madrid 1-0 in the Spanish league on Monday.
The team coached by Gennaro Gattuso has scored only once in its first three league matches.
