REVEALED: Juventus chief Paratici met with PSG over Cavani deal

Juventus are determined to land a big name striker signing this summer.Calciomercato.com says Juve chief Fabio Paratici met with PSG officials two weeks ago to discuss the availability of Edinson Cavani.

The former Napoli star is keen on a return to Serie A, but is waiting to hear from Manchester United over their interest.

Another stumbling block for Juve is Cavani's current €7.5 million salary, which reaches €10 million through bonuses. Juve's top earners are Carlos Tevez and Paul Pogba on €4.5 million-a-year.

Juve's move for Cavani is independent of their mooted deal for Sassuolo striker Simone Zaza.
