Cavani targets move

Chelsea target Edinson Cavani has urged interested parties not be scared off by Napoli's asking price and has hinted at a move away.

The Blues are keen to sign another striker as Fernando Torres continues to struggle for goals and Cavani is thought to be on Roman Abramovich's list of possible targets.

A move looks unlikely to happen until the summer but the player says clubs should come forward and declare their interest even though the get-out clause in his contract stands at a massive £54million.

"If a club has a clear project and they want to focus on me, they can't be frightened in front of this figure," he said.

"For now, I'm not thinking about [my future]. Then it will be up to the club to take into consideration what should be done. I am happy here. Napoli have given me a lot and I am trying to repay them. We'll talk about it."
