West Ham United boss David Moyes admits he considered signing Edinson Cavani while in charge of Manchester United seven years ago.
Moyes faces his old club on Saturday.
Cavani could make his first Premier League start on Saturday, seven years after Moyes travelled to France on a scouting mission as United manager.
In the end, Moyes decided against signing the Paris Saint-Germain striker.
"I remember at the time speaking to the representatives of Cavani," Moyes said.
"The problem I had was I had Robin van Persie, Wayne Rooney, Chicharito (Javier Hernandez) who were already in that position and several other up-and-coming players."
