Napoli have begun genuine negotiations to bring Edinson Cavani back from Paris Saint-Germain, claim reports in Italy.
The reunion has long been rumoured, fuelled by statements from the โMatadorโ and his entourage, as well as President Aurelio De Laurentiis.
According to reporter Carlo Alvino, who was the first to reveal Carlo Ancelotti was in talks to take over from Maurizio Sarri, the first step has now been taken to work out a deal.
Cavani is under contract with PSG until June 2020 and his difficulties co-existing with Neymar could prompt a departure sooner rather than later.
Crucially, the first impressions were positive and the 31-year-old Uruguay international is even prepared to cut his wages in order to help the move go through.
His children still live in Naples and he retains very good memories of the club, where he played from 2010 to 2013, scoring 104 goals in 138 games.
Cavani embraced many old friends at Parc des Princes when the teams met for their Champions League group phase tie, a 2-2 draw, and will be given a great reception at the Stadio San Paolo on November 6.

Forget a striker, their midfield is in dire need of support and I've always thought the long term plan was to move Mbappe up front anyway.

He loves the club, don't think he'll leave soon. Plus he's only 31, he has a season or maybe even 2 left at this level.

I would absolutely love to see Cavani back at Napoli as a neutral. He, Hamsik, and Lavezzi made a great trio.

I love Cavani and he is my favourite player of PSG, but I understand the situation in Paris might be troublesome, I wouldn't mind him leaving, guess I'll be a Napoli fan :')

Can Cavani play in the knockouts for Napoli given he's already played in the groups for PSG this season?

I really don't think Mbappe should move up front unless he is in a 2 striker system. Considering PSG's lack of service to Cavani and Mbappe's performance when up front, he should stick to a free moving winger position.

Eh if he waits he wonโt be able to cash in and he really wonโt be playing much next year in all likelihood. Best for all if he leaves after this year.
