Shocking! Napoli values new Maradona more than Victor Osimhen as PSG eye both stars

Victor Osimhen has recently piqued the interest of Paris Saint-Germain who are vying to replace the Nigerian attacker with Kylian Mbappe

Reigning Serie A champions of the 2023-24 season, Napoli SSC, has reportedly valued Georgian star Khvicha Kvaratskhelia at over €100 million, surpassing the market worth of Victor Osimhen, as reported by Soccernet.ng.

As reported by Tutto Napoli, Corriere dello Sport has disclosed that Paris Saint-Germain is currently keeping a keen eye on Kvaratskhelia, hailed as Napoli’s new Maradona by the Parthenopeans.

Recent reports also indicate that Napoli’s valuation of Kvaratskhelia has soared to well over €100 million, surpassing Osimhen’s current valuation of €110 million as per transfermarkt.

But Aurelio De Laurentiis may have to wait until Osimhen’s potential suitors like Chelsea, PSG, and even Manchester United hit his release clause before he can make an exit from Naples. 

Just a year ago, Kvaratskhelia was considered a priceless asset when he joined Napoli for around €13.30 million, having showcased immense potential for growth.

However, Napoli’s valuation now elevates him to the same league as the team’s top-caliber players, with figures reaching as high as €120 or €130 million.

Despite a season that fell short of expectations for Napoli, attributed to collective issues within the team, Kvaratskhelia’s untapped potential remains significant. 

Meanwhile, the potential sale of the Georgian forward this summer could provide Napoli with substantial financial leverage, potentially alongside Osimhen’s transfer.
