OMG: PSG want Morata as Cavani replacement 

Chelsea striker Alvaro Morata wanted at PSG to replace departing star Edinson Cavani

Paris St Germain are targeting a move for Alvaro Morata in the summer to compensate for the expected departure of Edinson Cavani, according to reports. The Spain striker only joined Chelsea over the summer, but already there have been rumblings about his future.

The 25-year-old recently spoke of London being a ‘stressful’ place and that long-term he would want to return to Spain, although he quickly moved to clarify those comments and even said he would be happy to sign a 10-year contract at Stamford Bridge. Despite that, PSG see Morata as an ideal summer signing according to Spanish publication Marca. Cavani, who has a testing relationship with Neymar, is tipped to leave the Parc de Princes which will see the mega-rich club on the look-out for a fresh addition up front.

Morata is the ideal candidate and PSG have even gone as far as making the player and his agent ‘aware’ of the interest. Since moving to Chelsea for £60million, the former Real Madrid and Juventus striker has scored eight goals including the winner against Manchester United at the weekend.
