Napoli are aiming to make progress in negotiations with star forward Khvicha Kvaratskhelia during the ongoing international break. The club has scheduled discussions between Kvaratskhelia’s agent and sporting director Giovanni Manna to move things forward.

Although Kvaratskhelia is under contract until the summer of 2027, Napoli are eager to secure an extension quickly, especially after the mismanagement of Victor Osimhen’s contract situation, which led to his loan move to Galatasaray this summer. The club wants to avoid a repeat of that scenario.

Transfer expert Matteo Moretto, writing for Caught Offside Daily Briefing, reports that Napoli are keen to prevent another “Osimhen situation.” Despite Kvaratskhelia being content at Napoli, there may be a release clause in his new contract, following genuine interest from Paris Saint-Germain during the summer transfer window.

Kvaratskhelia has made a strong start to the 2024-25 season, with three goals and two assists in his first seven league matches. Napoli are currently leading Serie A, holding a two-point lead over Inter in second and three points ahead of Juventus.
