Napoli's Uruguay forward Edinson Cavani was in Paris on Monday to finalize his transfer to Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), with sources close to the deal saying his 64 million euro ($84 million) price tag would break the French record.
Cavani will have to pass a medical before putting pen to paper, with a five-year deal expected, according to PSG sources.
Should the South American sign a contract with the French champions, he will line up alongside his former Napoli teammate Ezequiel Lavezzi of Argentina.
The current French Ligue 1 transfer record was set earlier this year, when Colombia forward Radamel Falcao signed for Monaco from Atletico Madrid for a figure estimated at nearly 60 million euros.
