After the many controversies of recent days, on his future at Napoli or elsewhere, with the words of his agent and his father who pushed him elsewhere and the statement from Napoli which responded by explaining how he is bound by the contract signed two years ago and also valid for the next three, the shin guard chosen by Khvicha Kvaratskhelia in Georgia’s debut match against Turkey did not go unnoticed. The blue winger was in fact filmed by the cameras wearing shin guards with the Napoli shield, with the player also wearing it in the match with his national team.

Kvaratskhelia report card by TMW.
Kvaratskhelia 6.5 – The Georgian talent tries to invent, but is often doubled up and is unable to find spaces. He comes close to scoring with a free kick. Little supported by his teammates.
