Arsenal closing on Paris Saint-Germain's Edinson Cavani?
The end of the year marks the beginning of the winter transfer window, and this time is very crucial for managers. The latest news coming out from London is regarding Arsenal searching for more goal scoring options as soon as possible. We are talking about Uruguayan superstar Edison Cavani who is currently playing in France for Paris Saint-Germain.
The Daily Express reports that the Gunners are edging closer to a 50 million-pound deal for the Paris Saint-Germain forward, with Laurent Blanc apparently resigned to losing the Uruguayan. The move could have happened earlier in the summer itself, but the value for the player was quite above expectations and thereby no offers were accepted.
If the proposed move happens in this January, there is a strong chance that the veteran forward Lukas Podolski might end the career at Emirates as he will find more difficult to find a place in the team.
