Paris St-Germain have signed Napoli forward Khvicha Kvaratskhelia until June 2029. <\/b><\/p>\n

The Georgia international, who was linked with Liverpool and Chelsea,, external<\/span><\/a> asked to leave Serie A leaders Napoli last week after failing to agree a contract extension. <\/p>\n

While no details of the transfer fee have been disclosed, reports say French champions PSG have paid 70m euros (\u00a359m) plus add-ons for Kvaratskhelia. <\/p>\n

“It’s a dream to be here,” said the 23-year-old winger. I’ve heard so many positive things about PSG.<\/p>\n

“I feel immense pride in joining this great club and I’m really looking forward to wearing my new colours.” <\/p>\n

Kvaratskhelia – who was part of the Georgia side that reached the last 16 at Euro 2024 – was dubbed ‘Kvaradona’ by supporters during Napoli’s title-winning campaign, after the club’s iconic player Diego Maradona.<\/p>\n

He joined Napoli in 2022 for \u00a39m from Georgian club Dinamo Batumi and has claimed a combined 54 goals and assists in 107 appearances.<\/p>\n

Kvaratskhelia is PSG’s first signing of the January transfer window and becomes the first Georgian player in the club’s history. <\/p>\n

“Khvicha is one of the most exciting players in world football – a fantastic talent, but also a player who has courage and fights for the team above all else,” the club said. <\/p>\n

PSG are seven points clear of Marseille at the top of Ligue 1 and visit Lens on Saturday, before hosting Manchester City in the Champions League on Wednesday. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
