Uruguay international Cavani, 26, is widely expected to quit Serie A this
summer after catching the eye of a number of big-spending clubs.And while new Blues boss Jose Mourinho is likely to face competition from the
likes of Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain for his signature,President De
Laurentiis expects to hear from the Europa League winners in the near
future.Uruguayan Cavani was top scorer in Serie A last term, netting 29
goals in 34 appearances as they challenged for the title and finished
second behind Juventus.He is also Napoli’s third highest
goalscorer with 104 goals in three seasons, 11 behind Diego Maradona,
who scored 115 in seven seasons.
Napoli are looking to strengthen
their squad for next season, hoping to build on an impressive campaign
that saw them qualify for the Champions League.Also former Chelsea
boss Rafael Benitez has replaced Walter Mazzarri as manager after the
latter moved to Inter Milan and will need a bigger squad if they want to
compete domestically and in Europe,therefore selling off Cavani,their top striker, may hamper their progressive run unless they bring in some players to strengthen the team.Adding to that,Napoli has been keen in signing and has also offered €40m (£34m) for the AC Roma pair Erik Lamela and Marquinhos.
