The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003 powerhouse wanted to make a switch across Europe to the English Premier League, according to Stefano Colantuono, citing West Ham as his destination.
The Uruguayan centre-forward has been in exceptional form yet again, scoring at a goal-to-match ratio, and is feared throughout Europe.
According to Cavani’s former coach, the Italian Serie A could have been deprived from his greatness, mentioning Cavani’s desire of making his mark in the Premier League. Former Palermo boss, Colantuono, commented:
“When I was at Palermo, the Matador wanted a move to West Ham as he wanted to try out an adventure in the Premier League.”
The former Atalanta boss was full of admiration and praise for the Uruguayan striker, suggesting that he had only seen such commitment from a handful of players.
During his interview with La Domenica Sportiva, he continued by saying:
“I have only got to know a few strikers with his qualities and his desire. On Fridays, for example, he would stay after training to practice his shooting skills in front of goal…”
Palermo signed http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Danubio-c38898 for five million Euros in the January transfer window of 2007. Cavani was successful at the Sicilian club, but it was not until his switch to Napoli. The Partenopei
side swooped for his services in the summer of 2010, and the former Danubio man came off age at the Stadio San Paolo. After an impressive debut season, he was signed on permanent basis for 17 million Euros.
The Partenopei fans would be thanking their lucky stars that the striker did not go through with his desire for English football. He has been a vital cog in the success of Napoli, both in the Serie A and
in the UEFA Champions League. Cavani has managed to find the net on 57 occasions in the 81 games for the Naples based outfit.
The Uruguayan international has been the top scorer of Napoli this season, scoring 16 times for the Serie A outfit. He has formed a potent partnership with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ezequiel-Lavezzi-c13073, and the duo ripped through Chelsea’s
defence in their 3-1 victory in the first-leg of Champions League round of 16.
