Edinson Cavani

He don't leave Napoli this summer

He's negotiating its renewal with Naples

He signed a new contract with Palermo in April and then left in June two months later so not completely unthinkable. Not to mention he is only negotiating....

We have heard that many times and then the player ends up leaving. Never trust a footballer....

The problem is that at Palermo he was not that appreciated. In Naples everybody wants him. And unless he is offered a Spot right in somebody's line - up he will stay. I hope though. Matador must stay, I don't want him Anywhere except Chelsea.

The problem is that at Palermo he was not that appreciated.

Bullshit. He loved the club, fans and even had a good relationship with Zamparini, which is unusual as the man is crazy. Also why would he extend his contract when there was already lots of interest around for him if he did not feel appreciated? Also lets just see this from after he went from Palermo to Napoli

But while many players get roundly jeered on their return to former clubs, Zamparini told Naples's Radio Kiss Kiss that wouldn't be the case with the Uruguayan. "Palermo will welcome him warmly. Every time I see him score for Napoli I'm happy, but the light blues (Napoli) will come up against a team on fire," he warned.

Not sure what you base Cavani not being appreciated in Palermo on, he was, but as any other footballer he obviously constantly wants to take the next step up and leaving Palermo was clearly the right choice for him, he still talks about his love for the club and fans, doesn't even celebrate when he scores against Palermo.

Every clun gets greedy when knowing a club need reinforcements especially when they're run by a rich owner!

[LondonPride1905 236]

I didn't quite say what I mean to say , but whatever. It's all cleared up and I don't want to spam. I still don't want him to wear anything but a Royal Blue Jersey for a team in London.

It looks to me that Torres will be our main striker for the next season. I was hoping we would bring Cavani but it doesn't look likely...

To our Napoli friends, does it seem to you that matador will leave this summer?

Mmh, Cavani no mate Lavezzi instead yes...

[J.F. 1,484]

Cavani is still my first option, he can really good replace Drogba.

[Spike 12,049]

This guy is an absolute monster. He could very well surpass the Iconic Drogba.

I'm not too sure about his dribbling, though.

[capriccioso 2,545]

He could very well surpass the Iconic Drogba.

If he gets about 400 goals, then yes. Otherwise he, as with every other future striker at this club, will be pepetually in his shadow.

[Leif 6,006]

Cavani is a work horse, just like Drogba is.

Falcao is definitely more of a threat due to his superb heading skills and great finishing, so he would probably get more goals in a season, but I'm sure that Cavani would help the team more and strike much more fear into defenders eyes. (Surprisingly though, although taller, he's actually lighter than Suarez! So he'd have to use his height well to bully defences.)

I've got some friends (ooo shock, I know) in Italy though, and the feeling over there is that Lavezzi will leave Napoli this Summer, Cavani the next, and then another season or 2 before Hamsik leaves.

He'd be a nice addition though, definitely.

We really should stop any attempt to compare Drogba with any of our future strikers. Let them create their own legacy at the club. If we're gonna start comparing them every time, then I'm afraid no strikers would have a chance of succeeding at the club because of anything he can't do will be immediately scrutinized and referred to Drogba.

[Spike 12,049]

How is that a facepalm? Is it wrong for me to want the clubs legends to be surpassed? If that were the case we would all still be wanking over Jimmy Greaves.

[Styles 9,790]

Just to add I really am a big fan of Cavani. He's a great player and is 1000000000x better than Torres. But I don't think we will get him because Napoli will want too much.

Cavni is good but he's not Drogba good. People said Torres would surpass Didier. How did that one turn out?

There is the distinction. I said Cavani "could" while others said Torres "would".

[Styles 9,790]

Semantics.

If Cavani has even half the Chelsea career Drogba has had he would have done well.

Nobody is surpassing Didier, trust me!
