The transfer window changes from hour to hour, especially in its last week where every moment counts. This Monday, January 27 in the middle of the afternoon, no agreement had been found between PSG and Atlético de Madrid regarding a transfer of Edinson Cavani. El Matador, 33, relegated to the bench when he is not injured, wants to leave the club in the capital.
The Spanish club, lacking a valid and efficient center forward, sees the Uruguayan a great opportunity to revive in the championship as for the 8th finals of the Champions League, where it inherited the defending champion, Liverpool .
Cavani's advisers are in Madrid
Madrid's first offer, 10 million euros (M €), could not convince Paris. As indicated last week, the transaction accepted by PSG must be around 15-20 M €. The capital's club would thus recover a good sum, while saving their salaries and bonuses until June 30.
Negotiations are scheduled to continue on Monday between all parties. According to Spanish media, advisers to the top scorer in the history of the club are in the Spanish capital to conduct the negotiations.
In Paris, we wonder about the advisability of replacing Cavani if his transfer comes to an end. Before releasing its attacker, PSG may be waiting to have its successor. The rare bird is difficult to find in this period of winter transfer window even if Leonardo, the Parisian sports director, has proven his expertise in this area and when the gong is approaching. This Saturday at midnight, the market will have closed.
