Manchester United boast some of the greatest strikers in Premier League history.
Whether it s Wayne Rooney, Ruud van Nistelrooy or Andrew Cole, seldom has a season gone by in England s top-flight where the Red Devils haven t possessed one of the finest poachers in the land.
And it certainly feels as though that tradition has continued with their latest poacher, Edinson Cavani, who put pen to paper on a one-year contact extension at Old Trafford on Monday.
Cavani s brilliant goalscoring record
Despite fighting to get back to fitness at the start of the season and often appearing from the bench, Cavani possesses a fantastic stat sheet of 15 goals in 35 appearances in the famous red jersey.

Next season’s European competitions will be welcoming AEK along after the team secured its top four spot after beating Panathinaikos 1-0 on Sunday.
Joining them will be third placed Aris, despite the 2-0 loss to second placed PAOK over the weekend.
It was a fairly tame game between the two Athenian teams, with nothing more than three yellow cards dealt out in the first half.
AEK captain and striker Petros Mantalos raised the stakes in the second half with a goal in the 50th minute, giving the visitors a much needed lead.
The hosts attempted a goal to equalise during overtime but to no avail as Green’s forward Federico Macheda shot ended up hitting the post.

HarryfromBath assesses the mood in the opposition camp ahead of Tuesday evening’s game by delving into their forums.
“The end of the season cannot come quickly enough and it looks like the players are on their holidays. The squad needs a massive overhaul in the summer”, “This is going to be a brutal summer of rebuilding, but this squad has failed dismally and needs to be broken up.”
The Bluebirds arrive at Portman Road on Tuesday night on a hit-and-miss run of form which typifies their solid mid-table position. Their win on Saturday at Elland Road stretched their unbeaten away run to seven games but they were handed a 3-0 beating at home to Bolton on Easter Monday.
