Kvaratskhelia’s agent says Napoli star wants to leave and reveals transfer priority | OneFootball

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia’s agent, Mamuka Jugeli, says the Georgian ace wants to leave Napoli this summer: ‘A Champions League team is the priority.’

Napoli star Kvaratskhelia wants to leave Napoli this summer, the winger’s agent Mamuka Jugeli said on Sunday.

Kvaratskhelia’s representative released an interview with Georgian media Sport Imedi, as quoted by La Gazzetta dello Sport, saying that his client wants to leave Napoli and play in the Champions League next season.

“I don’t want people to think that Kvara wants to stay at Napoli,” said Jugeli.

“We want to leave, but we are waiting for the end of the Euros so as not to disturb Khvicha. The priority is to join a team that plays in the Champions League.”

The winger’s father, Badri, shared the same view: “I don’t want my son to stay at Napoli. They changed three coaches last season, and it’s hard to play in a similar situation.”

Napoli have recently hired Antonio Conte as their new head coach. The ex-Juventus and Inter tactician has signed a three-year deal with the Partenopei.

Only a few months ago, Badri Kvaratskhelia and the player’s agent said very different things. Back in March, the winger’s father said he was convinced Kvara would remain at Napoli beyond the summer.

Napoli are currently in talks to extend Kvara’s contract, but they are not close to reaching an agreement. PSG and Barcelona have been linked with the 23-year-old who is about to enter his third season at the Stadio Maradona.
