Chelsea Transfers: 5 World Class Replacements For Fernando Torres

3. Edison Cavani

Cavani Another prodigious goalscorer who has been linked with a move to Stamford Bridge in recent times in Napoli's highly-rated Edison Cavani. The 26-year old Uruguayan is also a transfer target for this season's Premier League runners-up Manchester City and is considered one of the best finishers in European football at present. Having bagged himself 29 Serie A goals in 25 appearances this season and 38 strikes overall, it will come as very little surprise that his club have slapped a huge price-tag on his head in an attempt to ward off potential suitors. The South American is reportedly valued at around £42.5 million and would be looking to pick up £145,000-per-week were he to move to Stamford Bridge. But considering Cavani has scored nearly twice as many goals as Torres has this season, he'd be worth every penny.
