Mourinho: 'I'm not trying to sign Cavani'

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has insisted that the club have not targeted Paris Saint-Germain striker Edinson Cavani.

It had been reported that representatives of Cavani had been in London to discuss a summer move to England, but Mourinho has claimed that he is unaware of any potential move for the Uruguayan forward.

The 51-year-old told reporters: "In this moment we are trying to sign nobody. I have no idea.

"He just arrived in the club six months ago. Maybe he's so happy he doesn't want to leave and maybe the club is happy and they don't want him to leave."

Chelsea have also been linked with a move for Liverpool striker Luis Suarez.
