We imagine this one will be going on the bottom shelf of Edinson Cavani’s trophy cabinet.
Cavani became Paris Saint-Germain’s all-time top goalscorer on Saturday afternoon, when he tapped home his 157th goal for the Ligue 1 side.
The Uruguayan overtook Zlatan Ibrahimovic with the opener in PSG’s 4-0 victory over Montpellier, leaving the hosts 10 points clear at the top of France’s top division.

Having missed out on the chance to seal the record last week due to some predictable selfishness from teammate Neymar, Cavani didn’t pass the opportunity up this weekend and it clearly meant a lot to the 30-year-old.
To mark the achievement, PSG put together a presentation ceremony in the wake of Saturday’s win but we reckon Cavani is just a little bit disappointed with the gift he received.
PSG’s official Twitter account documented the awarding of a present that Cavani could probably have done without as he received a small two-dimensional model of himself.
Why anyone would want a tiny model of themselves is beyond us and we wouldn’t be surprised if this pops up on eBay before the weekend is out.
