His Premier League debut will have to wait till next weekend when Manchester United play hosts to Chelsea at Old Trafford in a week six duel.
Cavani has signed for Manchester United on a free transfer following the end of his PSG deal. He has signed a one-year deal worth £200,000 weekly with the option of another year if both parties decide to continue the association.
He was one of four players signed by Manchester United on the last day of the transfer window at the start of last week.
