According to reports from The Metro, Chelsea have prepared a huge contract offer for Arsenal and Manchester United transfer target Edinson Cavani.
The Uruguay international boasts 71 goals in 128 appearances for the Parisians – including a strike against Chelsea in the Champions League on Tuesday night – but could be shoved out of the Parc de Princes exit door in the coming transfer window.

The 6-foot striker is verging on the final two years of his contract and manager Laurent Blanc not-so-subtly hinted last month that he’d be prepared to move Cavani on, claiming there is a ‘problem’ with the 29-year-old’s behaviour.
Arsenal courted the South American last summer whilst Manchester United were recently linked with a £35million for the summer transfer window. Their interest was documented once again earlier this week by The Daily Mail.
But according to The Metro – who cite reports from Italian outlet TuttoMercatoWeb – Chelsea have opened talks with the former Napoli star regarding a move to Stamford Bridge and already prepared a ‘huge’ contract offer. La Liga giants Atletico Madrid and Serie A Champions Juventus are also said to be interested.
