Napoli are intent on tying star winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to a new contract amid interest from the likes of Real Madrid, Manchester City and Liverpool.

The Georgia star, 23, has developed into an excellent forward player over recent seasons and was a key member of the squad that won the club’s first Serie A title since 1990 last season. He scored 12 goals with 10 assists and followed that up with a further 17 goal contributions last season, as the club fell to 10th.

Napoli want to keep Kvara

Antonio Conte is now the new manager, but Kvaratskhelia’s camp have expressed public concern over the lack of Champions League football on offer next season. That has put a number of clubs on red alert.

But with Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen also linked with a move away, Napoli are keen to tie their winger down to a new contract. Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano says that club president Aurelio de Laurentiis is keen to discuss a deal for at least one more season, with a salary increase valid from 2025. He adds that the club will attempt to force the issue further once the Euros have concluded.
