Five summer transfer rumours that have no chance of happening

Manchester City v Wigan Athletic - FA Cup Final

Edinson Cavani to Chelsea

SSC Napoli v AC Siena - Serie A

Why the rumours – Mourinho apparently wants to sign a perfect striker and he is interested in Cavani. Other reports suggest that Chelsea might offer money plus Torres for Cavani’s signature. Cavani himself has said that he wants to move to a ‘bigger club’ in the summer.

Why it will not happen – Cavani will move, but the destination might not be Chelsea. His father recently said, “Cavani’s intention is to play for Madrid,” and he then added, “he is excited about it and is very willing to see it through”. With Higuain reportedly set for a move to Arsenal, Madrid will be one striker less, and who better than Cavani to fill in that place? Real Madrid might have no problems in triggering Cavani’s release clause that is worth £ 54 million. Cavani himself has commented two days ago that “Real Madrid are a beautiful team, every player dreams of playing there when he is a child.”

So, Cavani to Chelsea looks unlikely as of this moment.
