Paris-Saint-Germain are not making things easy for Edinson Cavani to join Atletico Madrid... But Fernando Llorente could be the key to a breakthrough in negotiations.

The soap opera starring Cavani seems to have no end. Atlético is doing everything in their power and could even be resorting to investment fund to try to reach a desperate agreement.

PSG will not let the Uruguayan player go unless they have another striker on their hands, as this would be one of the main obstacles the French club has put in the way of negotiations.

Le Parisien has been able to report that the Parc des Princes club are reportedly thinking of a striker like Fernando Llorente, who is currently at Napoli.

At PSG, they see the Spaniard as a great alternative to fill the void left by Cavani, although the aforementioned media did not make give any information on whether there is a formal offer for the striker or not. 

The next few hours will be key, as Cavani has even reportedly said goodbye to his colleagues, and with the transfer window closing in two days, no one knows what will happen.
