Edinson Cavani relishing emotional Napoli comeback

Paris Saint-Germain striker Edinson Cavani has admitted that he may be forced to fight back tears upon returning to Napoli for Monday's pre-season friendly.

The Uruguay international established himself as a fan favourite throughout his three-year spell at the Stadio San Paolo, before sealing a big-money switch to the French capital last summer.

"It's wonderful, I can't wait to get there and see the city where I had such wonderful moments, to be back in that stadium," he told Sky Sport Italia.

"Will I shed a tear? You never know what emotions will emerge. They can come on suddenly, when you least expect them.

"What I feel today is that for me it will be a great joy to be back in that city. Then we'll see."

The 27-year-old fired 104 goals in 138 appearances for the Naples club.
