Edinson Cavani

[Mouri_Matic 560]

To all the people who are still showing concern about the money that Cavani will cost, think of it this way:

He is in the peak of his career and will only get better, I believe if he stay fit he will have at least 4-5 25+ goal seasons and if he does manage that then £53M IS A BARGAIN.

Secondly, he is as good as Falcao(everyone got different opinion but base on the amount of goals scored, he is just as good) and Falcao cost £51m so Cavani can't be far off that.

Thirdly, Suarez who everyone(media, other club's fans) think is worth at least £50m, ARE YOU TELLING ME HE IS BETTER THAN CAVANI? Because imo, they are just as good as each other.

Fourthly, don't bring up Serie A crap that it is a shit league, maybe it lost its best players over the years but IT IS STILL THE MOST DEFENSIVE LEAGUE IN EUROPE.

And lastly, he cost this much BECAUSE HE IS WANTED BY RICHEST CLUBS IN EUROPE(Madrid, us and City) so of course Napoli is going to milk it as much as possible. Also he said he want to go to Madrid if he had to choose and if we are willing to offer £45-£50m then might as well make it £53m(release clause). No point trying to save a few millions then City/Madrid decided fuck it and pay it before us so we lose him like we did with Falcao.

If we are gonna go by the logic, then Hazard was overpriced, come on £32m for a 21 years old from Ligue 1 and look how that turned out... SOMETIME YOU HAVE TO TAKE RISK, Cavani's standard price is at least £40-£45m, don't even try to argue because that is the right going rate for him nowaday. So paying £10-£15m more is a bit overpricebut not MASSIVELY OVERPRICED LIKE SOME PEOPLE ARE MAKING IT OUT.

RVP 29 years old injury prone-£24m RISK

Ronaldo even though the best player in the world AT THE TIME AT £80M IS A ENORMOUS RISK

Ourselves with £32m Hazard-RISK

City with £40m AGUERO-RISK

And countless more... So just relax

I don't understand people sometime, we go for top players and pay huges sum, complain that they are overpriced

go for old experienced players(De Rossi...etc) and low sum, complain that they are too old

go for young promising players(Schurrle, Mangala) at decent fee then complain not good enough, overpriced...etc

LIFE IS NOT PERFECT, We are not going to get Cavani for £30m, Schurrle for £10m or whatever prices ''You'' think they are worth, it is up to the club to decide. Many people I see are obsessed over young players the club have(Lukaku, De Bruyn) so what if they are sold/loan?

Are you telling me you are willing to have Lukaku OVER CAVANI? He is a promising player, but that doesn't mean anything. This place is for the best players only, if young players think they are good enough for the club then let them fight for their place with top class players.

Here is my post again for people who are still doubting Cavani or share concerns over his price tag

It is NOT a done deal as far as I know. Not a single decent source has reported this yet. And I mean actual reporting, not just quoting stuff from other sources in their transfer rumors section

[Special Juan 27,514]

Napoli are looking to spend big money so by doing so Cavani must be more or less out the door.

Il Napoli fissa una data per risolvere il nodo Cavani: ecco quando si saprà il nome del bomber del futuro

Come riferisce ‘La Gazzetta dello Sport’, sia il Napoli che Cavani sperano che la questione si possa risolvere entro la fine della Confederation Cup. Il club azzurro è deciso a partire per Dimaro con il bomber del futuro: in pole c’è Edin Dzeko, ma sta scalando posizioni Gomez.

The article says that Napoli are not selling Cavani until they find a replacement. Yet, they hope to end this situation until the end of the Confederation Cup. Their main target for replacing Cavani is Dzeko.

[lucio 5,418]

i believe madrid will get suarez instead of cavani

My mate sent me this is from yesterday and tf1 believe he is going to real to replace higuain..

[haranr 485]

I will be so glad if he signs. Finally a class striker.

[mediator 2,026]

That's BS, they say Cash + Di Maria + Higuain + Coentrao for Cavani...

[J.F. 1,484]

come on wenger, sign higuain please !

This can't be good can it ?

City can easily offer Dzeko + cash as been reported before.

[Mouri_Matic 560]

That's BS, they say Cash + Di Maria + Higuain + Coentrao for Cavani...

Di Maria is worth at least £25-£30m himself already, Higuain around £20-£25m at least, Coentrao £15-£20m so that is way too good and not to say cash haha, obviously BS

[English Freak 456]

That's BS, they say Cash + Di Maria + Higuain + Coentrao for Cavani...

makes sense...5 million in Cash + Di Maria (15 mil) + Higuain (15 mil) + Coentrao (15 mil)...basically equals Cavani's release clause.

But highly doubt Madrid would give up 3 class players for Cavani..
