Kvaratskhelia performed at the highest level
The Georgia international has been a key player for Napoli over a number of seasons, and has continued to play an important role in his side's title quest this season.
In 17 Serie A matches, the winger has scored five goals and three assists, and is rated as the second best performer in the Italian team, with an average WhoScored match rating. 7.12.
Kvaratskhelia also played a key role for his country at Euro 2024 last summer, with talkSPORT's David Tanner Praised He called him “world class”, leading Georgia to the round of 16 for the first time.
Nunez's move to Liverpool simply did not work out, so it makes sense to include him in the Kvaratskhelia deal, although it may be wiser to use Chiesa as a starter, given that he is showing less encouraging signs than the Uruguayan.
The former Juventus player has made just one Premier League appearance, and a goal against Accrington Stanley in the FA Cup is unlikely to give him much time to show further signs of improvement.
