After his time at Paris Saint-Germain, the Portuguese aspect allegedly subsidized Cavani’s wage demands.
According to A Bola, Benfica already has a resolution through Uruguayan after long discussions.
Cavani is said to have sought to pocket a net annual salary of nine million pounds on a three-year contract in Lisbon.
This meant paying the 33-year-old a salary of 345,000 euros consistent with the week due to Portugal’s highest income tax rate of 48%, which Benfica bosses found absolutely unpleasant.
Turns out Leeds delivers a similar payment package if they need to woo Cavani.
Last week, the striker showed his conversations with Benfica as one of the many clubs with which he moves.
He said, “We talked. There were meetings, as there were with clubs.
“There’s nothing definite, so I can’t say anything.When there’s an agreement, when it’s real, they’re going to know.”
Atletico Madrid were very connected to Cavani in January and in Spain reports that La Liga remains an option for the striker.
Although Diego Simeone’s team wants to sell before they can buy this summer, even though the loose agent, lately on vacation in Spain, loves Wanda Metropolitano.
Leeds are expected to invest in their team after winning promotion to the Premier League, and goalkeeper Illan Meslier will be their first addition after their transfer is permanent for five million pounds.
The club’s owner, Andrea Radrizzani, has opened the door to a carp signing like Cavani month, admitting that she “thought” of a shock.
The Italian explained: “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, since it’s still available on a loose transfer.”
On the other hand, Manchester United has been suggested to offer the veteran striker a contract through one of his former goalters.
Louis Saha thinks Cavani is doing the trick while the Red Devils are watching his attack this summer.
He told the Football Index podcast: “I think Manchester United is missing something from hiring Edinson Cavani this summer.
“I’ve been following him for many years and I’m tired of there seeming to be no interest.For me, Cavani would be the user this summer.
“Cavani has a wonderful sense of goal and his leadership would be a wonderful asset.It has very difficult qualities in the moving market.”
