Chelsea And Manchester United Told It Will Cost £60m To Land Edinson Cavani

Posted by

PSG paid £55 million for Uruguayan ace.

Premier League sides Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal would not find it easy to sign Edinson Cavani from Paris Saint-Germain as the French champions could demand a fee in the region of £60 million for the striker, according to talkSPORT.

Cavani wants out of the Parc des Princes but since he cost PSG close to £55 million last summer, his transfer away from France would be no mean matter.

The Ligue 1 holders would want to at least recoup the fee they paid for the former Napoli man, despite his performances over the last year for both club and country not justifying his price tag.

It is now down to the English clubs to probably decide whether they would want to fork out that much money on a 27-year old, who netted 25 goals in 43 appearances in the French top tier last season.

The Uruguayan is unhappy at being made to play out wide by his manager Laurent Blanc and he wants a move away to the Premier League this summer.
