Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, the 23-year-old SSC Napoli striker under contract until 2027, had been the target of a concrete offer from Paris Saint-Germain during the 2024 summer mercato, but his club had not opened the door despite pressure from his entourage. This winter, PSG managed to reach an agreement that would be around 70 million euros plus bonuses. Le Parisien reports that Kvara’s medical is due to take place in the next few days, with a first match in Paris to follow.
“Kvara is expected to undergo his medical this Thursday or Friday in Paris before initialling his contract with PSG.
He is due to make his Paris debut at the Parc des Princes on January 25 against Reims.
Le Parisien.”
We remain cautious. The transfer is almost certain, but we regularly see that the media have trouble finding out the exact timetable. There was talk of a medical this Wednesday, but nothing came of it. This should come on Thursday or Friday, as we don’t expect it to take long. But that’s just logic.
Secondly, it would be surprising if he were to play as early as this Saturday at Lens (Ligue 1 matchday 18), and he won’t be allowed to take part in Wednesday’s Champions League matchday 7 against Manchester City. This is possible on the 25th against Reims (matchday 19), but not a given either.
