TOP STORY: Newcastle make Kvaratskhelia approach
Newcastle have made an £82million ($107m) offer to sign Napoli winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, according to Corriere dello Sport.
The 22-year-old was a standout player for Gli Azzurri last season, and after the Magpies acquired Serie A star Sandro Tonali from AC Milan, it looks as though they are now keen to land another player from Italy’s top flight.
Kvaratskhelia contributed to 22 goals in 34 league matches to help his side win the Scudetto, and it is reported that Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City are also among the clubs in Europe interested in his services. Despite being yet to provide a response to the offer from Eddie Howe’s side, the Premier League club are said to already be prepared should they see their opening proposal rejected, and are willing to make an improved second attempt.
Kvaratskhelia has four years left on his current deal at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium.
