Farewells that leave a bitter taste. In 2020, Edinson Cavani left PSG after seven full seasons and 200 goals scored in the Parisian jersey. Arriving in 2013 from Naples, the Uruguayan made his mark in the history of the capital club before leaving for Manchester United. After two years in England, he joined Valencia for a season, before joining Argentina and Boca Juniors, where he has been playing since 2023.
But five years after his departure, a regret persists on the side of Paris Saint-Germain. Cavani never had his last moment at the Parc des Princes and was unable to say goodbye to the supporters. Despite the CUP's efforts to organize a tribute, the striker never responded to fans' messages and made no sign of life to attend a symbolic farewell.
“It breaks the myth a little”
” Damage. Too bad it ended like that.”confides Romain Mabille, president of the supporters group, 100% PSG. “We tried to contact him several times so that he could say goodbye to the corner and we didn't hear back. It breaks the myth a little”he regrets.
Romain Mabille specifies that he tried several approaches to organize a last official tribute: “I don’t know if he personally received the messages, but we did several times. We really got into trouble, we really wanted to say goodbye to him on the bend and we never heard back. We will always respect it, but when it comes to goodbyes, there is a small downside. » A departure which remains full of nostalgia and frustration for Parisian supporters.
