FC Barcelona chooses a Serie A star to reinforce the left wing

After last summer FC Barcelona was unable to sign a left winger due to various factors, the Catalans have decided to strengthen the position in the next summer window. There are many names on the agenda for the Catalans, but Rafael Leao and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia are the two preferred by the Catalan club.

In this sense, the sporting management considers the Georgian to be a more feasible option for the transfer market. According to 'SPORT', the Blaugranas believe that due to age, projection, quality and, above all, economics, the Napoli player is the ideal candidate to strengthen the left side of the forward line.

The great obstacle to the Kvaratskhelia operation

The winger has been one of the most outstanding players for the Neapolitan team this season, and his salary makes him an unbeatable alternative for Barça. Kvaratskhelia would earn around 1.5 million euros per season, and his renewal would be 'stalled'. In fact, the Italians are reportedly considering Federico Chiesa as a possible replacement for Khvicha in the team, which would make his transfer even easier.

However, and as not everything that glitters is gold, the operation would find its biggest 'stumbling block' in Aurelio De Laurentiis. The president of Napoli is known for being a 'tough nut to crack' when it comes to negotiating, and the striker does not have a termination clause to execute his signing, so the Catalans would have to overcome this obstacle to get his signature. At the moment, all options remain on the table.
