Juventus CEO Giuseppe Marotta has said there is "no chance" of signing Paris Saint-Germain Uruguayan forward Edinson Cavani, and noted that the Italian football side has many young forwards.

Marotta told Radio Kiss Kiss Napoli on Tuesday that Cavani's deal is not possible at the moment since Juventus have forwards like Paulo Dybala, Alvaro Morata, Simone Zaza and veteran player Mario Mandzukic, reports Efe.

The Juventus CEO explained that there is currently no interest in this deal.

Marotta also confirmed that Uruguayan defender Martin Caceres is free to sign for whoever he wants, as his contract expires in June.

The CEO was also proud of the form of Juventus, champions of Serie A this season and a finalist in the Italian Cup, describing it as "extraordinary".
