Edinson Cavani named the most gifted players in soccer history

Former Uruguay forward Edinson Cavani has named the most gifted soccer players in history.

«To be honest, I don't consider myself a soccer genius. Geniuses are people like Messi, Neymar, Ronaldinho and Maradona.

I am a diligent player who is honing my skills. I have a thirst for goals, I always strive for glory and self-improvement. Sacrifices pay off», ESPN quoted Cavani as saying.

Since last July, Cavani has been playing for Argentine team Boca Juniors. During this period, the 37-year-old striker played 44 matches, scoring 20 goals.
