In an exclusive interview with Sky Sports, Edinson Cavani talks about his prolific form for Paris Saint-Germain and responds to those long-standing rumours linking him with the Premier League.
Paris Saint-Germain may sit third in Ligue 1, but it has been quite a season for Edinson Cavani. The Uruguayan is the top scorer in Europe having netted 18 times in 16 league starts, and with 24 goals in all competitions, he only needs one more to match his total for the whole of the last campaign.
It’s the most prolific season of his career to date. This is Cavani's fourth year in the French capital and there are big challenges ahead, but he is in the form of his life and he recently celebrated his 100th goal for the club. As he takes a break from PSG’s preparations for Saturday’s clash with Rennes to speak to Sky Sports, it’s no wonder he’s feeling upbeat.
“It has been a good period for me,” says the 29-year-old. “I am scoring a lot of goals and that’s always positive for a striker. The manager and my team-mates have given me confidence, and I’ve also been able to return to my natural position.”
The positional change has been crucial. Cavani has taken over as PSG's central striker after three years on the flanks, and he has relished a return to the position from which he scored 104 goals in 138 appearances for his previous club Napoli.

“It is a question of time and dedication, and there is no shortage of that in the squad,” he adds. “This has always been a competitive league but sometimes things work out in different ways. We are working hard and I’m sure that everything will fall into place and we will find consistency.”
Cavani is happy with life in a city he describes as “one of the most beautiful in the world”, but rumours linking him with a move to the Premier League have persisted throughout his career. He has no plans to leave PSG and reports in France suggest he could even extend his contract at the club, but he has not ruled out the possibility of one day moving to England.
