Cavani happy to stay at Napoli, says agent

 

The prolific attacker recently said that he dreams of playing for Real Madrid, but he would be happy to stay at his current club, too

Edinson Cavani's agent Claudio Anellucci has stressed that the Uruguay international is happy to stay at Napoli if a transfer to a bigger club does not materialise this summer.

The prolific attacker revealed earlier this week that he dreamed of playing for Real Madrid or Barcelona when he was a child, but his representative has made it clear that this does not necessarily mean that the Uruguayan wants to leave the San Paolo.

"Nobody said that Edinson wants to leave Napoli," Anellucci told Il Mattino.

"Edi is happy here. He loves the city, the club and the Napoli fans.

"He only has a certain dream to play for the team of his heart, which he has had ever since his childhood. What's wrong with it to say that out loud..."

Cavani has a contract with Napoli until the summer of 2017, but has a limited fee release clause of €63 million.

The striker has been linked with a move to Real Madrid, while Manchester City are also keen to sign the 26-year-old.
