“We want to leave Naples, but now we are all waiting for Euro 2024. With Conte, Naples has big plans. I am sure they will qualify for the Champions League again next season and fight for the Scudetto. But that does not mean that Kvaratskhelia wants to stay there, I don’t think so.”. This declaration, signed by Khvicha Kvaratskhelia’s agent, the so-called Mamuka Jugeli, set fire to the powder in Naples. Already because he is supposed to get along well with Aurelio de Laurentiis, the president of the Neapolitan club. Then because he went the opposite of what the various players in the file had been explaining for weeks.
However, one thing is not changing, Napoli’s desire not to sell him this summer. A statement on the night of Sunday to Monday recalled the official position of the Italian team. “Calcio Napoli reiterates that the player has a three-year contract with the club. Kvaratskhelia is not on the market. It is not the agents or the fathers who decide the future of a player under contract with Napoli but the club!!! End of story”. However, we must act with the player. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, sporting director Giovanni Manna could go to Germany, to the Georgian team’s training center, to discuss with Kvara and his entourage.
Naples wants to regain control
Communication must be re-established with the player’s clan, to prevent the situation from getting any worse. Because De Laurentiis had made it clear to his new coach, Antonio Conte, that his player would not move this summer. In addition, Conte himself had contacted the 23-year-old Georgian by telephone to tell him how much he was counting on him this season. According to Sky Sports ItalyKvaratskhelia would also have told him of his enthusiasm to evolve under his orders. Which puts into perspective the media release of his agent. And if it was mainly a question of playing on the contract extension desired by the management?
Kvaratskhelia has not seen his salary reassessed since his arrival in 2022, even after the 2023 Italian champion title. Bound until 2027, he is waiting to be considered at his fair value by his club, which wants his side establish a release clause that can be activated from the summer of 2025. Manna must therefore calm things down, and bring everyone back to the negotiating table. Not sure that things will be resolved soon, with Georgia entering the Euro this Tuesday, at 6 p.m., against Turkey.
