Edinson Cavani plays down Arsenal move

Napoli striker Edinson Cavani has insisted that he is not interested in a move to Arsenal.

The 25-year-old is rumoured to be the subject of interest from a whole host of clubs ahead of the January transfer window, having caught the eye with his blistering goalscoring record in Serie A.

The Uruguayan has been linked with a big-money move to the Emirates Stadium in recent weeks, but Cavani is adamant that he is happy at the Stadio San Paolo.

"My future is the present," he told Il Mattino. "I'm happy at Napoli, my teammates are fantastic, the fans are very passionate and my family is settled here - it's all fantastic.

"I'm happy I came here."

Napoli are currently fourth in Serie A.
