Well, this won't do much to deter the reports that have Edinson Cavani linked with an impending move to the Premier League.

Paris Saint-Germain are set to kick off their preseason tour of Asia on Tuesday in Hong Kong, where they'll meet local side Kitchee before heading to Beijing, China to take on Guingamp in the Trophée des Champions, an annual match between the Ligue 1 champions and the winners of the Coupe de France.

Cavani, who is under contract for another four years with PSG and insists that he plans to stay put despite apparent interest from Manchester United, reportedly also missed a training session with his club earlier this week.
