Barcelona Transfer Target Motivated to Join PSG, Replace Kylian Mbappé, Report Says

As Kylian Mbappé gets ready to depart as a free agent this summer, Paris Saint-Germain may be on the lookout for a replacement, and one of the names swirling in the rumor mill is Napoli standout Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.

The 23-year-old player is on multiple teams’ radars, including Barcelona. This interest is mainly fueled as manager Xavi Hernandez aims to strengthen their team with a dynamic winger who can cause chaos on the left side of the field.

Moreover, this season, the 23-year-old has been a standout player for the Serie A team, appearing in 43 games, scoring 10 goals, and contributing nine assists. Given his remarkable form, Napoli are now seeking a substantial fee to consider letting go of the player.

Il Mattino reports (h/t Le10Sport) that a meeting between Kvaratskhelia’s agent and PSG emissaries aimed at a very big transfer. Mamuka Jugeli would apparently not be against his protege’s departure, who, after bursting onto the scene at Napoli, could take a huge step forward by joining the Parisian club. 

In fact, sources close to the matter assert that the 23-year-old winger would be more than motivated to replace a player like Mbappé at one of Europe’s most ambitious clubs.
