Manchester United keen on luring Napoli star Khvicha Kvaratskhelia – Man United News And Transfer News

Manchester United are “serious” about signing Khvicha Kvaratskhelia from Napoli, as per reports.

Ruben Amorim deployed Alejandro Garnacho as the left-sided inside forward in his first game in charge of United while Marcus Rashford led the line as the number nine.

United started strongly but failed to put the game to bed as their forwards lacked decisiveness in the final third. Garnacho, in particular, could have done a lot better in many situations. His inability to find his teammates at the right moment thwarted several counter-attacks.

Should Amorim continue to play Rashford through the middle, United might need to sign a new left-sided forward, as the young Argentine forward still needs to work on his decision-making.

And a report suggests the Red Devils are already in the market to strengthen that area of the pitch.

According to Sportmediaset (via Get Italian Football News), United are “serious” for Kvaratskhelia amid Napoli’s struggle to find an agreement with their star player over a new deal.

The Georgian winger, who plays a similar role under Antonio Conte, continues to impress with his goal-scoring and dribbling prowess in Italy. This season he has already scored five goals in Serie A.

Napoli value his presence and want to renew his contract, which is currently due to expire in 2027. But as things stand, there is no agreement between the parties.

It is claimed the Naples based outfit have already proposed a salary of €6 million, bonuses included.

They are not willing to go beyond that figure, but United are ready to offer €3 million more to Kvaratskhelia in their bid to convince him to move to Old Trafford.

Further, the report suggests that if the situation doesn’t change between the club and the player by the end of the season, the Italian giants will consider selling him, demanding a fee of about €100m.

Interestingly, it is added “the feeling is that the Red Devils have enough to lure” the Napoli talisman.
