Premier League clubs send scouts for Khvicha Kvaratskhelia during November international break

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia led Napoli to Scudetto last season

Chelsea, Manchester City, Manchester United, and Newcastle United all sent personnel to witness Khvicha Kvaratskhelia throughout Georgia's 3-1 loss to Spain.

The two countries were playing their final Euro 2024 qualifier, and the four Premier League teams were watching, even though there were several players they liked in the match. In particular, Kvaratskhelia was being studied closely.

Following Robin Le Normand had given Spain the lead in the opening half, the winger netted Georgia's lone goal of the game.

Despite their difficulties, Kvaratskhelia is having another fantastic season with Napoli under manager Walter Mazzarri, who took over from Rudi Garcia. In his 11 Serie A games this season, Kvaratskhelia has tallied three goals and four assists.

The 22-year-old is presently negotiating a 12-month contract extension with Napoli, which would come with a substantial wage increase. His current contract is set to expire in 2027.

Napoli will not permit the departure of two of their most valuable players in a single year. It seems more likely that star striker Victor Osimhen will leave next summer rather than Kvaratskhelia given the ongoing standoff over his contract.

It's doubtful that Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis has changed his mind about rejecting claims made a few months ago that Kvaratskhelia is an acquisition target that may be attained by Europe's elite teams.

Even though Napoli is adamant that Kvaratskhelia will remain, prospective suitors will still conduct due diligence and keep an eye on him. Along with Premier League teams, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, and PSG have been monitoring the winger recently.
