Barcelona, PSG Handed Transfer Boost in Race for Liverpool’s €80M-Rated Target

FC Barcelona, Liverpool, and Paris Saint-Germain are the clubs linked to Napoli standout Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. Moreover, these three clubs would have received good news as contract extension talks between the Italian side and the player aren’t progressing.

La Gazzetta dello Sport recently reported that PSG and Barcelona are intensifying their efforts, putting pressure on Napoli to finalize a deal before next summer.

According to a recent report from La Repubblica, Barcelona are in ongoing talks to sign a Napoli player, with negotiations already underway. The Italian outlet indicates the deal could be finalized for around €80 million.

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Napoli remain at odds

As reported by Tuttomercatoweb (h/t Le10Sport), Kvaratskhelia is still unconvinced by Napoli’s €5 million wage offer for his contract extension. PSG could take advantage of the situation to make progress on the matter.

The Parisian management is reportedly ready to offer up to €11 million per year to the Georgian international to convince him to sign. It remains to be seen if such an amount will tip the scales in PSG’s favor in Kvaratskhelia’s mind.

Journalist Graeme Bailey told Rousing the Kop that Liverpool are monitoring Kvaratskhelia as part of its plans to prepare for Mohamed Salah’s eventual departure.

“When you’ve got the likes of possibly Kvaratskhelia on the market, let’s not forget that Liverpool have just brought in the second best Georgian player,” Bailey said. “Liverpool are all over Kvaratskhelia, they know about the situation, there might be a chance of getting him next summer.”
