Report: Chelsea Agree Personal Terms With Edinson Cavani

We all knew we had not heard the last of Edinson Cavani rumours. By now, people who have been reading my blog must be familiar with Tancredi Palmeri.

There are reports of Chelsea having found an agreement with Cavani over personal terms, pending an agreement with Napoli -1

Palmeri then tweeted again after three minutes to confirm he knew Chelsea have been discussing with Cavani's representatives recently.

Checking my sources, from my side I can confirm that Chelsea had many talks with Cavani entourage in the very last days

While this doesn't mean in anyway that Chelsea have gotten their man, it's still a step in the right direction. Chelsea now need to agree a fee with Napoli. Actually, Chelsea shouldn't be discussing personal terms with Cavani without permission from Napoli. Nice move though as it will now be difficult for Napoli to stop him from moving. Chelsea's unwillingness to pay his buyout fee might eventually Napoli to settle for a reasonably less amount.

Do you want Chelsea to go on with the Cavani chase?
