FC Barcelona has a new rival in the race for the signing of Napoli's left winger, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. Which is it? We tell you at FCBN
The FC Barcelona is currently in a 'casting' to find its ideal signing to strengthen the left wing. A position that, despite being well covered this 2024-25 season with Raphinha as the starter, clearly would benefit from the addition of a top player with great imbalance and immense flair to bolster the offensive flow on that side.
One of the names that has gained strength to occupy that position at Barcelona is Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, left winger of Napoli. His situation at the Italian club suggests that there could be a possible exit in the upcoming summer transfer market.
Although Napoli seems poised to renew his contract, which expires in 2027 with a salary update, Kvaratskhelia's circle appears unwilling to see him continue. Despite a rumored offer of 6 million euros net per season.
Now, if an agreement on renewal is not reached and Kvaratskhelia hits the market, negotiations with Barcelona could prove complex. This is partly due to the reputation of Napoli's president, Aurelio De Laurentiis, known for being a tough negotiator who likely isn't willing to 'give away' one of his stars.

Furthermore, it's worth considering that other top European clubs also have an interest in Kvaratskhelia. It has been mentioned that Paris Saint-Germain, with significant financial power, would be willing to negotiate with Napoli for the Georgian. Additionally, as reported by 'Sport Mediaset', Manchester United is also interested in Kvaratskhelia and is offering an attractive contract of 5 years for a total of 8 million euros net per season, with easily achievable bonuses.
Barcelona, on the other hand, has not taken concrete steps thus far and is awaiting Kvaratskhelia's decision on his future. There is speculation that Barça is not willing to pay more than 80 million euros for the Georgian, thus avoiding a hefty sum for his signing. It is crucial to see how this situation unfolds and where the potential negotiation leads, especially considering the competition from other clubs.
