Liverpool plan bold move to sign Khvicha Kvaratskhelia

Liverpool They are reportedly planning to make a raid to sign Napoli star Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, according to the Spanish outlet. Transfers.

The 23-year-old has enjoyed great success at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona after returning in 2022. He played a pivotal role for the Azzurri in their Scudetto triumph in the 2022/23 season.

In 34 league appearances last season, the Georgian scored 17 goals and demonstrated his qualities, although his team struggled and finished in mid-table.

The striker has made a promising start to this season under new manager Antonio Conte and has scored four goals and registered two assists in eight Serie A appearances.

Now, Transfers He claims that, impressed by Kvaratskhelia's recent performances, Liverpool have expressed interest in signing him next year to bolster their attacking department.

Kvaratskelia to Liverpool

However, the report says that Kvaratskhelia is not Liverpool's top target to add depth to the attack, with Leroy Sane and Karim Adeyemi higher up on Arne Slot's wish list.

The Spanish media claims that Liverpool is not the only club interested in the Naples star, since Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona They are also interested in hiring him. But Napoli have no intention of letting him go and want to retain him by tying him to a new deal.

Kvaratskhelia will still have two years left on his current contract next summer and is valued at around £67m per Transfer market. Napoli are therefore expected to demand a hefty fee if they are forced to cash in in 2025.

Napoli always play hard to sell their star man and usually set inflated prices to keep the vultures away. Liverpool will therefore find it extremely difficult to attract him to Anfield if they formalize their interest.

Kvaratskhelia is a talented player and has the potential to become a world-class player in the future. However, he is a left-back by nature and the Reds already have Luis Díaz, Cody Gakpo and Federico Chiesa as options to deploy in this area.

Furthermore, Darwin Núñez can also play in this position if necessary. Therefore, Liverpool do not need to spend a lot of money to sign Kvaratskhelia in 2025.

However, it will be interesting to see if the Merseyside club finally make a concrete decision to sign the striker to bolster their attack.
