Napoliโ€™s Khvicha Kvaratskhelia aims to renew after Antonio Conte appointment

Serie A side Napoli are working to extend Khvicha Kvaratskheliaโ€™s contract with a high salary and the player is keen to stay.

According to a report by La Repubblica via Calcio Napoli 24, Antonio Conteโ€™s appointment at Napoli was enough to convince Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to become a key contributor to the clubโ€™s long-term project. The Partenopei are set to reward him for his performances with a contract until 2028 and a major salary increase.ย 

Club president Aurelio De Laurentiis wants to insert a hefty โ‚ฌ130 million release clause in the Georgianโ€™s new contract, similar to the one in Victor Osimhenโ€™s deal.ย 

Conte considers Kvaratskhelia central to his vision at Napoli and has no desire to leave him out. There is constant contact between the club and the playerโ€™s entourage as the Neapolitans will look to lock down one of their best to avert any interest from other European clubs.ย 

The 23-year-old scored 11 goals and registered six assists amidst an underwhelming Napoli season but never ceased to amaze the supporters with his fighting mentality.ย
