PSG’s supposed desire to recruit Khvicha Kvaratskhelia resonates as an admission of the failure of recent transfers to the French champions’ club.
Antonio Conte had been half heard. When he joined the Naples bench last summer, the Italian coach had set certain conditions, in particular that of being able to keep the best players in the squad. If Victor Osimhen left the Serie A club for Turkey (Galatasaray), Khvicha Kvaratskhelia wisely remained with the 2023 Italian champions.
Six months later, it’s no longer the same lemonade. “
Kvaratskhelia asked to leave the club, I spoke with him and he confirms his desire to leave the club immediately”explained Antonio Conte on Saturday. Will he be able to hold it again? What we are almost sure of are the suitors for the 23-year-old Georgian winger. Among them, PSG.
French hopes misjudged by Luis Enrique?
For a good week, several media have been reporting contacts between the French champions and the player who has been playing for Napoli since July 2022. Why want to recruit Khvicha Kvaratskhelia when the Parisian club has, it seems to us, material in the offensive sector ? There is an answer. Part of the transfer window is missed.
PSG would not be satisfied with Bradley Barcola and Désiré Doué, the two young French hopes with a similar profile to the Georgian at least in positioning, on one side. We are not talking about Randal Kolo Muani who has simply been sidelined for months by coach Luis Enrique.
330 million euros for attackers
These examples sound like an admission of failure by Parisian leaders. Since the 2023 summer transfer window, they have recruited massively in offensive terms (Dembélé, Kolo Muani, Barcola, Ramos, D. Doué, Asensio, Lee) for a huge amount, around 330 million euros. And PSG still needs a striker?
RMC Sport indicated this weekend that PSG did not intend to pay the amount requested by its Neapolitan counterpart. The Italians want around 80 million euros to let go of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
