This is not a really new issue, but it has come back to the table quite unexpectedly. For more than a year now, the name of winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has been insistently announced by PSG. Last summer, the capital club made a concrete approach to Naples. But followers of Italian football know that negotiating with Aurelio De Laurentiis is not easy. And this file could not succeed, Napoli asking for a good fortune and above all hoping to convince its star to extend. This is also what Antonio Conte, who had just arrived, demanded.
But since then, the Georgian striker’s situation has evolved… Or not. Off the field, his situation has absolutely not changed. The Italian club did make a good extension offer to its player, but the latter did not give a response. The Italian press revealed that the player was demanding at least 7 million euros per year. And after having decided not to align for a long time, President De Laurentiis would have ended up making a new offer with a salary of 5 million per year which would gradually increase to 7 million euros in the years to come. But Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has still not given an answer.
PSG talks well with Naples
On the pitch, the 23-year-old striker is also less effective with 5 goals and 3 assists in 19 matches. If he has experienced some physical problems in recent weeks, he clearly seems to have lost points sportingly, so much so that this morning, the local daily Il Roma explained that Antonio Conte was not against parting with it for a sum of around 90 million euros. And PSG was, according to the Italian media, in regular contact with the player and his entourage. The capital club had not given up on its idea of recovering him and if possible this winter. Information which was confirmed at the beginning of the afternoon.
Indeed, according to the media RelevoPSG is now in discussions with Naples for a transfer of the Georgian international (40 caps, 17 goals). Information that we are able to confirm to you. A first official offer could even arrive quickly. According to our information, PSG offered Milan Skriniar to lower the transfer fee in addition to a nice sum of money. For the moment, it is the salary of the Slovenian defender which poses a problem since the player who has an XXL salary in Paris will necessarily earn me in Italy. Napoli would like the difference in salary to be compensated by PSG. The ball is now in Napoli’s court who will have to make a decision with their player. Because if he is under contract until 2027, the Georgian is a real headache for the Italian management. And obviously, Luis Enrique’s team wants to take advantage of the situation.
