Reports suggest that representatives of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia will hold discussions with Napoli regarding his contract, following speculation that Arsenal are keen on signing the winger. Kvaratskhelia was a standout performer in Europe last season as he played a crucial role in Napoli’s historic Serie A title triumph, alongside Victor Osimhen. Despite Napoli’s struggles this season, Kvaratskhelia remains one of the most sought-after players on the continent, with Arsenal reportedly interested in acquiring the £100m-rated attacker. However, CN24 reports that Kvaratskhelia’s agents are currently in Saudi Arabia to negotiate a new deal with Napoli, as the reigning Italian champions have yet to reach a new agreement with the forward.
Regardless of whether Kvaratskhelia signs a new contract with Napoli or not, the 22-year-old winger is talented enough to move to a bigger club. However, if Napoli gets their way with Kvaratskhelia, the asking price for the forward could increase further, which would be an unwelcome prospect for Arsenal. Although Arsenal is not desperate to sign a new world-class wide-attacker, Kvaratskhelia signing a new contract with Napoli would be bad news for them. Arsenal has been strongly linked with Kvaratskhelia over the past few months, and they are clearly big fans of the Georgian international. If Kvaratskhelia commits his future to Napoli, it would rule out any potential move for Arsenal, even if the forward signs a new deal with a fixed release clause.
