Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, the unknown Georgian who took Serie A and Napoli by storm in 2022/23

Kvaratskhelia is now a big profile in Europe.

Kvaratskhelia was an unknown player whom Napoli signed last summer. After a few stints in Russian football, he was sold back to Georgian club Dinamo Batumi due to the war in Ukraine. Napoli chose to sign the Georgian player last summer without expecting him to become the standout performer he has been. Right from the first game, the left winger showcased glimpses of his talents, and he played a significant role in helping Napoli clinch the title as Italian champions this season.
He has taken Serie A and Europe by storm and became the player with the most assists in Serie A (10), which has caught the attention of top European clubs. He is already rumored to be linked with moves to the Premier League and La Liga, but it is expected that he will stay in Southern Italy to further develop his skills. His importance to Napoli also means that the club is not willing to sell him. However, there is no doubt that he will be a huge financial asset for Napoli when they eventually decide to sell him.

When considering that it is Kvaratskhelia's first season in one of Europe's top 5 leagues and that he is only 22 years old, it is safe to say that he has performed above expectations. Now, he needs to further develop at Napoli, and if he continues to score goals and provide assists, it won't be long before he is regarded as one of the best wingers in Europe.
