Atletico Madrid coach Oscar Ortego admits interest in signing Edinson Cavani

Atletico Madrid coach Oscar Ortega admits that the club are interested in signing Paris Saint-Germain's Edinson Cavani.

Atletico Madrid coach Oscar Ortega has admitted that the reigning Spanish champions are interested in signing Edinson Cavani from Paris Saint-Germain in the summer.

After failing to score in his last eight league appearances, the Uruguayan is being linked with a move away from France, with compatriot Diego Forlan claiming that the 28-year-old would be "perfect" for Atletico.

Ortega, one of Diego Simeone's coaching staff, has revealed that the club are showing interest in signing the attacker.

According to Goal.com, when asked about signing Cavani in an interview, Ortega said: "Yes, there is [interest] and I would love to be able to sign him. For us, and for him, too."

Cavani is also being linked with a move to Juventus, as several clubs reportedly enquire about his availability.
