Jorge Bermudez, the Boca Juniors sporting director is hopeful that Paris Saint-Germain forward Edison Cavani will join the Argentine Champions soon.
The 33-year-old is out of contract at Parc des Princes at the end of June and he has been linked with a move away from PSG after his transfer to La Liga side Atletico Madrid failed in January.
The Uruguay international has been reported to be a target for Major League Soccer side Inter Miami CF.
Bermudez believes Boca Juniors, where club legend Juan Roman Riquelme is the current vice-president, can lure Cavani to Buenos Aires.
‘’Knowing Riquelme and the distance to [former Uruguay International Diego] Forlan, and knowing the category of Cavani, hopefully it will be very soon,’’ Bermudez told Cooperativa Radio.
‘’He would give us a great hand and be very supportive. I think he wants to come to Boca.
‘’If he comes it is for a real desire and the signs are clear.’’
Before the postponement of the French Ligue One and football across Europe due to COVID – 19 pandemic, Cavani had scored 7 goals in all competitions in 2019/2020 season.
