And the 33-year-old wasted little time taking full advantage of his new surroundings in the North West over the weekend.
Cavani had reason to celebrate after emerging from the bench to score his first goal for United during the 3-1 win over Everton on Saturday.
The ex-Paris Saint-Germain ace was still seen grinning a day later as he shared a video of himself enjoying the great outdoors.

Cavani – keeping a low profile dressed in camouflage walking gear – also captioned a selfie: “Nothing more beautiful, nature.”
Patrick Kluivert responded by calling the striker ‘brother nature.’
One fan added: “Love that! Take advantage of the fresh air!!”
Cavani, who is also a keen fisherman, lifted the lid on his love for the outdoors upon joining United last month.
He told the club’s website: “I’m very calm and relaxed off the field – very laid-back.
“I’m a little bit calmer. I’m one of life’s hard workers. On a day off for me, the first thing I try to do is to try to go out for a walk.
“I really like nature and it’s true that I like to go fishing; I like the countryside and wildlife.
“So, whenever I get a day off, I try to get away from that football environment and all that comes with it on occasions.”
