Edinson Cavani is not pushing for a move away from Napoli, according to his brother.

Edinson Cavani's brother has said that the Uruguayan striker is happy at Napoli and looking forward to competing in the Champions League next season.

The 26-year-old has been strongly linked with a move away from the Stadio San Paolo this summer, with Chelsea the latest club to be considering the option of triggering his £53.5m release fee.

A record of 102 goals since in three years also has Real Madrid interested, but his brother and representative, Walter Guglielmone, said that Cavani is not desperate to leave Naples.

"At present I believe he will play again for Napoli," Guglielmone told Radio Kiss Kiss. "Otherwise, where would he like to play? He has always said, in a great team.

"Now he is at Napoli and he is happy. Next year is the Champions League and he is very happy to be competing in that again.

"What percentage chance is there of Cavani going to Real Madrid? None. There has been no contact."

Cavani joined Napoli from Palermo in 2010.
