Antonio Conte did not beat around the bush this Saturday afternoon at a press conference. The Naples coach responded to questions surrounding the future of his Georgian star, winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. The latter would have explicitly confided his desire to be transferred.
“Kvaratskhelia asked to leave the club,” said Antonio Conte. I spoke to him and he confirmed it to me. I’m disappointed I made him feel important for six months. I don’t want him to think I’ve chained him here. »

The Georgian striker, a major architect of the Neapolitans’ title in 2023, enjoys very good odds on the transfer market. Paris Saint-Germain would also be in the running to enlist the 23-year-old player. This season, he has 5 goals and 3 assists in Serie A.
However, the candidate teams to welcome Khvicha Kvaratskhelia must still negotiate with Naples, the leader of the Italian championship ahead of Atalanta and Inter. But especially with its president, Aurelio De Laurentiis, renowned for being very tough in business.
