Paris Saint-Germain reportedly close in on the signing of Napoli's Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, dealing a blow to Liverpool and Manchester United.

Paris Saint-Germain have reportedly reached an agreement to sign Napoli winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who has been linked with Liverpool and Manchester United.

Kvaratskhelia has been linked with a move away from the Serie A giants, having failed to make progress in negotiations to extend his deal beyond the end of his current contract in June 2027.

A recent report claimed that Man United and Liverpool were interested in signing the Georgia international before next month's transfer deadline.

However, the Premier League giants knew they would have their work cut out if they were to beat PSG to the Kvaratskhelia's signature.

PSG have been leading the race to sign the Napoli star, who recently informed his head coach Antonio Conte of his desire to leave the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.

PSG close in on Kvaratskhelia move

According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, the Ligue 1 champions have 'reached a verbal agreement in principle' to bring Kvaratskhelia to the Parc des Princes.

The update claims that PSG have agreed a transfer with Napoli worth €70m (£59m) after the two clubs held positive discussions on Monday.

The proposed transfer requires 'final approval' from the respective owners before Kvaratskhelia can be unveiled as the latest addition to Luis Enrique's squad.

Kvaratskhelia, who has agreed a five-year deal with PSG, will help fill the void left by Kylian Mbappe's departure at the end of last season, having developed a reputation as one of Europe's best wingers during his time in Naples.

Kvaratskhelia set to end Napoli era

Providing there are no surprise twists, Kvaratskhelia will bring the curtain down on his memorable association with Napoli.

The 23-year-old played a key role in ending Napoli's 33-year wait for the Serie A title in 2022-23, scoring 12 goals and providing 13 assists in 34 league appearances.

Kvaratskhelia has been a regular feature in the team's latest title bid, starting 15 of his 17 Serie A appearances this season, contributing five goals and three assists.

However, he now looks set to bow out in the middle of Napoli's Scudetto bid and depart after making a total of 107 matches in all competitions.
