Things were very clear in Aurelio de Laurentiis’ mind last summer. An extension for Victor Osimhen to guarantee a high sale price during the 2024 transfer window, with an exit voucher. The Nigerian striker should use this voucher to join the Premier League, especially since Naples’ 10th place will not allow him to play in the Champions League. But now, it’s his other jewel that has been targeted for several weeks.
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia is in the sights of Paris Saint-Germain, who have even, according to the Italian press, already made a first offer, around €100 million. PSG would like to take advantage of the fact that Naples has not yet extended its 23-year-old Georgian nugget, initially linked until 2027 but with a contract far from what he could earn with a big name. However, as we have already explained to you, Naples does not panic and follows its initial plan, reinforced by the Kvaratskhelia clan, who puts no pressure on the proposed timing.
Everything works in favor of Naples
Furthermore, according to our information, the arrival of Antonio Conte will not make PSG’s task easier, quite the contrary. Ambitious, the Italian coach is currently negotiating the outlines of the squad available with president Aurelio de Laurentiis. He sent the message that he wants to associate Romelu Lukaku, to succeed Osimhen, with Kvaratskhelia, in his usual 3-5-2. Today, no one doubts, within the Neapolitan club, that the left winger will stay this summer.
In addition, relations are excellent between the player’s agent and the fiery president De Laurentiis, which is far from being the case with all his flock. He therefore has plenty of time to complete the extension, while offering him a major role in the reconstruction of the team, with a new cycle started with the probable arrival of Antonio Conte. For PSG, this means almost impossible mission.
