Leeds has targeted Paris Saint-Germain and Uruguay as the guy who can free his return to life in the Premier League.
But movement is now forbidden according to all Tokens.
They claim that Cavani has “accepted the proposal” of the Lisbon team and that some minor main points want to be resolved.
The former 33-year-old Napoli leader is believed to have a two-year contract.
He scored 200 goals in 301 games for Paris Saint-Germain after scoring 104 in 138 games for Napoli.
The move to the Portuguese national team, the last moment in the league, could become official on Wednesday.
Leeds has also been associated with Zlatan Ibrahimovic, but Cavani has looked at the maximum probable option.
Cavani’s half-brother and agent, Walter Guglielmone, has had talks with Benfica.
Uruguayan journalist Sebas Giovanelli called the first assembly as ending very definitively with a moment of discussions already underway.
According to reports, the president of the Benfica club, Luis Filipe Vieira, was in charge of negotiating with the player’s representative, before the incorporation of various directors.
Offering Cavani Champions League football, as Benfica can do, influenced his decision.
Since receiving a promotion earlier this month, Yorkshire’s appearance has supposedly had its own discussions with Guglielmone.
Leeds owner Andrea Radrizzani admitted that an agreement by Ibrahimovic would be “difficult,” but more positive than Cavani might be tempted.
The Italian told Sky Sports Italia: “In addition to his quality, Cavani can contribute to his physique and adapt here, but I never talked about him with the coach.
“That said, we definitely have an idea about it and we’ll see it, given that it’s still available in a loose transfer.”
