Napoli coach Rafael Benitez wants to link up yet again with Chelsea striker Fernando Torres by signing him for the Serie A side, according to a report.

Napoli coach Rafael Benitez is eyeing a move for Chelsea striker Fernando Torres, according to a report.

The Spaniard wants to link up yet again with Torres, who played under him at Liverpool and the Blues with great success.

Benitez believes that an agreement can be made if the 29-year-old is part of a deal that takes Edinson Cavani to Stamford Bridge as long as the Serie A side also receive £40m in cash, reports The Express.

However, the deal could be scuppered due to the two clubs' differing valuations of Torres, which will affect the price paid for Cavani.

Torres scored 23 goals for Chelsea in all competitions last season.
