But Uruguay assistant manager, Celso Otero, says they are unsure how long Cavani is able to play for.
“He is able to play with the same generosity that he has always done,” Otero told Marca Claro.
“I think no one can say how many minutes he can play, we’ll see it from the moment he participates in the game, although it may be unknown if it’s from the beginning or coming in.
“We’ll see how much of what he usually does he can do right now."
