Edinson Cavani eyes move to England

Cavani eyes move to England

Napoli striker Edinson Cavani is targeting a summer move to the Premier League, according to the London Evening Standard.

The Uruguayan scored and provided two assists in his side's 3-1 victory over Chelsea in the Champions League on Tuesday.

The Blues are reportedly one of the clubs interested in his services, with the future of their forward line in question.

Fernando Torres has yet to hit form following his £50m switch from Liverpool, while 34-year-old Didier Drogba has been linked with a move to China.

Tottenham Hotspur are also thought to be keen on Cavani, if they can't persuade on-loan striker Emmanuel Adebayor to take a substantial pay cut and join them on a permanent deal.

Cavani has scored 22 goals in 33 appearances for Napoli this term.
