While Paris Saint-Germain is reactivating the track leading to Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to strengthen its attack, this potential transfer is not unanimous. The idea of recruiting the Georgian star from Naples, author of 5 goals and 3 assists in 17 Serie A matches this season, is criticized by a former member of the club. The latter believes that this movement reflects internal weaknesses more than a real necessity.
Alonzo points the finger at Barcola
In an intervention on La Chaîne L’Équipe, Jérôme Alonzo, former PSG goalkeeper, expressed his doubts about the operation:
“If PSG is interested in Kvaratskhelia, it’s also Barcola’s fault. This season, in the first six months, he is good for two matches then bad for three.”
For Alonzo, Barcola’s irregular performances, which remain sufficient to shine in Ligue 1, do not meet European requirements: “You are going to be champion with this Barcola, but to reach a level in the Champions League, what we see on the sides is not enough. At European level, it is not strong enough.”
Kvaratskhelia, an ambitious but complex track
PSG, which seeks to anticipate a possible departure of Randal Kolo Muani, hopes to convince Naples to let Kvaratskhelia leave. According to L’Équipe, the Parisian club maintains regular contacts with influential intermediaries to move forward on this issue. Naples, although not completely closed to a sale, remains demanding, with an estimated market value of 91.6 million euros for “Kvara”.
However, PSG are not alone in the race. Other major European clubs are monitoring Kvaratskhelia’s situation, which could complicate a possible deal. Despite these obstacles, Paris seems determined to strengthen its offensive wings, although the relevance of this strategy continues to divide.
