MANCHESTER CITY TARGET EDINSON CAVANI HINTS AT NAPOLI EXIT
MANCHESTER CITY have been boosted in their pursuit of Napoli hit-man Edinson Cavani.
Last week the Italian side's sporting director Riccardo Bigon stated that the Uruguay star is not for sale.
But Cavani himself has hinted that the club would be more open to a transfer than they are letting on.
The 25-year-old believes that Napoli's tough stance could merely be a plot to earn as much as they can from their prize asset.
"This is football, I think the [Napoli] president [Aurelio De Laurentiis] is a little... likes to play with the numbers," he is reported to have told Uruguayan website Subraydo.
“I think that regardless of whether an offer will come in or not, the chance to sit down and talk will come and he will do that calmly.
“He will use his head, he is a very good businessman and it will all be worked out.”
Cavani's comments will have alerted City, who are facing competition from Juventus, Inter Milan and PSG for the striker.
The Premier League champions are likely to turn to the former Palermo player if they fail in their attempt to prise Robin van Persie from Arsenal.
