Italian Serie A, recently announced the winner of the Goal of the Season award…
Victor Osimhen’s teammate and strike partner, Kvhicha Kvaratskhelia, has been awarded the Goal of the season after scoring a solo goal, soccernet.ng reports.
A tough name to pronounce for the average tongue, an even tougher footballer to handle, the Georgian winger enjoyed a stellar debut season with Napoli, racking up twelve goals and assisting ten in just thirty-three games whilst taking up the Serie A MVP Award and now has another award to his name.
The Serie A Goal of the Season award went to Kvaratskhelia, a goal he scored on the 11th of March 2023 against Ademola Lookman’s Atalanta BC.
The goal came after Napoli had tried to break the deadlock, but to no avail, before Osimhen pounced on a loose ball from Zambo Anguissa and sent Kvara through on goal, and although he could have gone for goal directly, the left-winger took his time to go on a mazy solo run, twisting and turning, and dribbling the defenders alongside, before slotting the ball into the top-right corner to give Napoli the lead at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium.

Kvaratskhelia arrived in Napoli last summer and quickly rose to prominence, forming a formidable partnership with Osimhen, lifting the Scudetto and being instrumental in one of Napoli’s most successful seasons in European Competitions in recent seasons.
As one of Napoli’s main players in their quest for their first league title in 33 years at the age of 22, the Georgian international has attracted interest from some of Europe’s richest football clubs, but The Parthenopeans have made their stance clear on the forward’s future, as he looks to continue football at the club next season.
