The 28-year-old is said to be frustrated with his current situation at the French capital as the striker has been consistently played out of his role by their manager Laurent Blanc, who recently insisted that the South American is causing a trouble at the Parc des Princes with his behaviour and could be allowed to leave the club in the future.
Cavani joined the Parisians from Napoli in 2013 and has scored 69 goals in 120 appearances for the Ligue 1 champions.
