One less alternative for the left winger of FC Barcelona

FC Barcelona has prioritized strengthening the left wing during the upcoming transfer market and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia was emerging as one of the preferred options of the sports management. Due to his age, sporting fit, and his low salary, which is around one and a half million euros, the name of the Georgian gained traction in the offices of Spotify Camp Nou over the past few weeks.

Moreover, his complicated contractual situation, with his renewal with Napoli being extremely stalled, allowed the culés to dream of his arrival. The positions between both parties were very far apart, and everything pointed to the player changing scenery at the end of the season despite being linked to the club until 2027, a situation that the Catalans wanted to take advantage of.

'Kvara', one step away from renewing with Napoli

However, the 'soap opera' may have taken an unexpected turn. According to reports from the 'Corriere dello Sport', the Neapolitan entity and 'Kvara' may have compromised on their demands and the agreement to extend his commitment from 2027 to 2029 is imminent.

The new contract for Khvicha would include a salary adjustment in line with the winger's status, amounting to a figure close to 6 million euros per season with progressive increases. Thus, Barça watches as one of its preferred candidates to bolster the attack slips through its fingers, so the focus will shift to other stars like Rafa Leao or Nico Williams.
