EDISON CAVANI is reportedly furious with PSG after being left off their 50th anniversary post and allegedly wants revenge when they play in Paris
Cavani, 33, was left off of a social media post by PSG celebrating their 50th birthday in August.

The post featured the club’s favourite players of all-time, minus Cavani.
The Manchester United ace is said to be furious about the snub and is desperate to play against them when the sides meet tomorrow, according to the Mail.
He could be granted his wish to punish his old side as he trained with the United squad for the first time since completing his 14 day period of self-isolation.
But his former team-mate Kylian Mbappe has also expressed that there will be no love lost if Cavani does play in the match.
He said: “We are going to play against him and try to beat him.”
Cavani had an illustrious time in France where he won 19 trophies with the Ligue 1 champions
He scored 200 goals in 301 games during his seven years at the club and in the 2016/17 season he netted a stunning 49 goal in just 50 games.
But he left PSG under a cloud when they blocked his attempt to leave in January, so he refused to extend his contract by a couple of months and play when the season restarted after lockdown.
He has battled injury problems over the last two years and not started a game since March in a 2-0 home win over Borussia Dortmund.
After spending some time in the footballing wilderness, United came to the rescue and signed him in a dramatic transfer deadline day deal.
An initial one-year contract holds the option for the club to add on another season.
Cavani is expected to earn £200,000 a week during his tenure at the club.
