Serie A winger responds to Real Madrid links: “At the moment, I’m 100% focused here” | OneFootball

Real Madrid has consistently attracted and nurtured some of the most extraordinary attacking talents the sport has ever witnessed.

With the club still renowned as the hub of top talents, rumors of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia potentially donning the Royal White jersey have been making the rounds, more so considering his admiration for Real Madrid.

Kvaratskhelia’s father was recently quoted as saying, “Khvicha always dreamed and still dreams of playing for Real Madrid. I am sure about it.”

This unsurprisingly fueled rumors once more, but the Georgian talisman has come out to put a halt to the rumour brigade and express his desire to continue playing for Napoli.

Kvaratskhelia’s heart set in Napoli

In an interview with Geo Team via Sky Italia, the winger spoke about his future and expressed his commitment to Napoli.

“At the moment, I’m 100% focused on Napoli. I’m doing my best to help the team,” he said.

Real Madrid was brought up considering he had supported the team as a child, and his father publicly voiced the player’s desire to play for the Merengues.

However, downplaying the possibility of a move, he diverted the focus back to Napoli and stated the fascination for Real Madrid was a thing of the past, claiming:

“It was a childhood passion, but now I only think about Napoli. We have important matches ahead of us. I’m very happy here.”

“There are many good clubs where I would like to play, but now I feel happy in Naples.” the 22-year-old added.

It remains to be seen whether Real Madrid pursue the €85 million-rated left-winger, but judging from the player’s aforementioned quotes, it does not look like the player is keen on parting ways with Napoli just yet.

However, Real Madrid plans to sign a Galactico next summer, and a player of Kvaratskhelia’s caliber will undeniably be welcomed.
