Cavani keen to work with Mourinho

Napoli striker Edinson Cavani has claimed that "it would be a pleasure" for him to work with Jose Mourinho.

The Uruguayan international is reported to be high on Chelsea's list of transfer targets this summer, while Manchester City are also thought to be tracking the 26-year-old.

"The Special One? It would be a pleasure to be managed by someone like him," Cavani told Sky Sports News.

"Chelsea? I don't know if they've made an offer for me but I know that working for a coach like [Manuel] Pellegrini or Mourinho would be a great pleasure."

Cavani scored 36 goals in all competitions last season as Napoli secured a second-place finish in the Serie A table.
