PSG considering swoop for Chelsea target Zielinski

Paris Saint-Germain are hoping that they hold an advantage in the race to sign Chelsea and Liverpool target Piotr Zielinski from Napoli.

As per claims emerging in Italy, the French giants could utilise Napoli’s interest in a deal to re-sign Edinson Cavani to lure the Polish midfielder to Paris.

Cavani is being linked with a dramatic move back to Italy after growing frustrated with life in Italy.

Chelsea expressed an interest over the summer, with Maurizio Sarri a known admirer.

Having worked with the player at Empoli, he was hoping to bring him to Stamford Bridge with him but was unable to complete a deal.

Napoli have been desperate to keep hold of Zielinski but a deal to bring Cavani back to the club could convince them into selling.

Zielinski has been a long-term target for Liverpool, with the Reds coming close to signing the player during his time at Empoli.

Jurgen Klopp was very keen to sign the midfielder but it was Napoli who won the race to sign him after impressing in Italy.
