Manchester City will reportedly offer Edinson Cavani £13.3m per year in an attempt to beat Real Madrid to his signature.
The Napoli striker has become one of Europe's most highly-regarded frontmen following three terrific seasons at the Stadio San Paolo, scoring 71 goals since moving from Palermo.
City and Real are thought to be the frontrunners in the race to land the Uruguayan, who is believed to have a €63m (£53m) release clause in his contract.
His future with Partenopei is still up in the air, with his mother claiming that her son wants to leave Italy.
According to the Daily Mail, the Citizens have already held talks with Cavani's representatives and will try to negotiate a deal with Napoli in the summer.
