Papers talk.

Cavani is not worth 60m and nobody's gonna be that stupid to pay that much money, not even PSG and Citeh. Simple as that. I don't see anyone paying more than 40m for him.

Last summer I was offered 55million euros (approximately £45million) to release him but I didn't sell.

It's tactics. He probably hopes someone's gonna take those comments seriously and make an even bigger bid lmao.

Don't believe him a single word. De Laurentiis is one of the biggest self-publicists in the business right now, he knows how to make the tabloids.

Just watched all his goals from 2010 up until now. One thing which is evident is that he often tries to do too much, kinda like Torres. Too many swerves, touches, turns etc. He seems to be at his best when, like Torres, he breaks the offside trap and just has the 'keeper to deal with.



I think he'd be an upgrade over Torres though. He seems mentally strong, even if he has choked a few times. (No that's not a joke about him being gay(?)).



His link-up play is better than Torres, his finishing is probably equal, but his positioning and awareness is leaps and bounds better than anyone we have at the club.



Gomez/Torres/Ba/Lukaku (maybe) does look tasty even if history suggests he'll 'flop'.

I don't want him here for the same reason I don't want Falcao, but some of the reactions here are ridiculous, imo. He has one of the best scoring record in Europe. I won't be upset if we get him for 20-25m. Though I doubt the interest is genuine.

My cat would have scored that one. Even Torres goal vs Barca last year was harder to convert. One goal against an abysmal Barca team does not make you a world class striker. His goals are tap ins, only made possible by horrendous defending. A tap in is no pressure situation, anyone can score these.

Torres would not have been there on the line. This is what Mario brings. His movement, positioning, and striker's instinct are second to none.

Exactly. Many focus on his goalscoring record and not looking into his overall game as well as how he would fit into here.
