PSG’s winter transfer window could well take on an unexpected dimension. As relayed yesterday, the Khvicha Kvaratskhelia track has regained momentum, and contacts between the two clubs have been relaunched. 5 months ago, however, PSG was forced to give up on this issue, faced with the inflexibility of the Neapolitan leaders, and especially its president Aurelio de Laurentiis, who especially did not want to upset the coach he had just appointed , Antonio Conte.
Conbte had named Kvaratskhelia as indispensable, and hopes were high to extend him since relations with the 23-year-old Georgian’s agent had finally warmed up. But since then, no extension and a clearly declining status in the mind of Conte, who has found other strong elements, as we explained to you. So the door opened again.
PSG tried to include players
According to our information, Aurelio de Laurentiis has set a price below what he demanded during the last summer transfer window. Between €80 and €90 million, and that could do the trick. Problem, PSG does not want to spend more than €45 million this winter, even if it means giving the same amount next summer. Which does not please the Neapolitan president, who wants to accelerate on other issues and who wants to benefit from maximum liquidity.
PSG also proposed two other formulas to convince Naples: €45 million + Randal Kolo Muani, or €60 million + Milan Skriniar. Two formulas which contain pitfalls. For the first, it’s simple, the destination does not suit the French striker. For the second, it is the problem of salary, with a loss which should be compensated. In any case, the discussions are concrete. It remains to be seen whether the two parties will be able to reach an agreement by the time the market closes, scheduled for February 3.
