Khvicha Kvaratskhelia

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has quickly become a household name amongst football fans this season. Napoli are running away with the Scudetto and their Georgian ...

Best grew up in a city which had been destroyed by the Blitz in World War II and was on the cusp of a lengthy civil war in the shape of The Troubles, which lasted from the 1960s to the late 1990s. Here’s hoping he takes a leaf out of Best’s book and does so in a red shirt at Old Trafford. And he already has the nickname of admiration (Kvaradona) to go with it. With 32 goals in all competitions that season, Best was rightfully awarded the Ballon d’Or as United managed to become the greatest team in Europe just a mere ten years after the Munich air disaster. He arrived in Italy and has been instrumental in their pursuit of what should be their first Scudetto in over 30 years. They may have been brought up in different eras and on opposite sides of Europe, but similarities in their conditioning and environment as young people (to stress again, at face value) can still be found. The relentlessness showcased by Kvaratskhelia against Liverpool in the Champions League in September had shades of Best’s grit with the ball when being hacked down by defenders in the 1960s and 70s. Being able to move at such a high level of intensity with regards to being relentless and extraordinarily rapid does not dissuade Kvaratskhelia from slowing the game down when necessary. After dominating performances on the European stage, he was given the nickname of ‘The Fifth Beatle’, such was his stature in western popular culture at the time. His goal against Atalanta recently when he dummied a shot twice to create a better position before slotting the ball home displayed his elite composure applied with ridiculous in-game intelligence. A fearless attacker who does not hesitate to overwhelm defenders with the two classic and fundamental attributes associated with his position: rapid pace and expert dribbling. The startling pace and ability to control the ball expertly and skilfully whilst moving at such a high pace is something Kvaratskhelia shares with Best.

Italy icon Christian Vieri has urged Manchester United to sign Napoli star and Georgia international Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.

Kvaratskhelia has shown great talent and potential in his short time at the top level. The 22-year-old has scored 13 goals and has provided 15 assists in [28 appearances](https://www.transfermarkt.co.in/khvicha-kvaratskhelia/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/502670/plus/0?saison=2022&verein=&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=) in all competitions for the Partenopei. The Northern Irish star scored 137 goals in 353 appearances for the Red Devils. Best spent 11 years at the Old Trafford side between 1963 and 1974. In the UCL, the Naples-based club have done exceptionally well as well. They are leading the chasing pack by a considerable margin and are on course to winning their first Scudetto in over three decades.

Former Italy forward Christian Vieri has compared Napoli star Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to George Best in a plea for Manchester United to sign the winger.

If he goes to Manchester United, the days of George Best will return, Kvaratskhelia is the same. “The goal he scored was the stuff of madness! The Georgian international's goal in that win was yet another breathtaking moment, his double-feint sending three Atalanta defenders one way and then the other before rifling the ball into the top corner.

Celebrate the biggest racing week of the year- the Cheltenham Festival. Henry is not the only man to have praised Kvaratskhelia ahead of a potential move away from Naples. Speaking with Bobo TV, he said: "The goal he scored was the stuff of madness! He has over four years remaining on his contract at the Estadio Diego Armando Maradona. “He has the legs to go on the break with Osimhen. If they don’t win the league, it will be crazy because of the number of points that they have ahead. If he goes to Manchester United, the days of George Best will return. The winger has been one of the star performers in Serie A this season as he aims to help the club to their first league title since 1990. But he is with him the whole time. He can hold the ball. He can see a pass.

Arsenal legend and former France International Thierry Henry believed Napoli star Khvicha Kvaratskhelia as the 'complete package' for Manchester United ...

It is more a conscious thing than anything else, based on what you have learned in training, on the mistakes you have made previously, on the options that are there.” “He has the legs to go on the break with Osimhen. If they don’t win the league, it will be crazy because of the number of points that they have ahead. But he is with him the whole time. Hopefully, it can carry on for him and they can win the league. He can hold the ball.

The Georgia international is enjoyed a brilliant campaign with the Naples outfit on course for the Serie A title.

He was quite unknown and was an exciting player, and he is having a wonderful time. The Australian then states he floated a deal to Rangers in an attempt to bring Kvaratskhelia to the British game.

Former Ibrox hero Craig Moore insists that his old side had the opportunity to buy the Georgian attacker.

Kvaratskhelia has earned comparisons to Argentinian legend Diego Maradona due to his scintillating displays in Naples and he's regarded as one of the best young talents in Europe.

The young Georgian star has put the Italian side on the verge of a first Serie A title in 33 years.

It has to find a way of taking Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, the overnight sensation with Naples, the star with Italy and Europe in the palm of his hands, out of his comfort zone. “It is more a conscious thing than anything else, based on what you have learned in training, on the mistakes you have made previously, on the options that are there.” He has, he acknowledged, detected that teams – particularly in Italy – have started to defend him a little differently. Spalletti, as is normal in these situations, was simultaneously trying to sell him on the club and warn him as to the nature of his duties. Mainly, though, it fit with the way he saw his talent. “But at some point, early on, I had to collect myself, remind myself that it was not a dream, that it was reality, and I had to find the strength in myself to live through it.” “The start was so smooth that it did feel like a dream,” he said. His first contribution in that competition was to instil an identity crisis – as yet unresolved – in Trent Alexander-Arnold, the Liverpool and England right back. Napoli is on its way to its first Italian title in 33 years, and common consensus has identified Kvaratskhelia as the reason. I have to prove every game that I can do as I have promised.” That is just about perfect: He is leaning on a wrought-iron railing on the terrace of the Grand Hotel Parker’s, all cut-glass, belle epoque elegance, the city of Naples spilling out to the sea beneath him. “I tend to default to gratitude,” he said.
