Napoli’s Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has had a brilliant start at Partenopei and will be back in action against Roma.
The Georgian arrives at Maradona in the summer from Dinamo Batumi for around € 10 million, with a number of other clubs trying to sign him this summer and in the past. However, Napoli is clearly one of the best offers in the window.
Along with Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia is one of the best players in Serie A so far, second in the league for goals without penalties and assists per 90 minutes and second in dribblers per 90 minutes.
He was also a trusted creator, ranking second for most goal-creation actions. Overall, he has scored 5 goals and has 5 assists in Serie A, and in his 4 appearances in the Champions League, he has contributed 5 goals.
