Khvicha Kvaratskhelia’s flirting with Real Madrid and club legend Guti may not materialise into anything concrete in the upcoming summer transfer window.
The Georgian international is a player whose profile is highly appreciated at the offices of Santiago Bernabeu. However, speculation of his move only grew when Real Madrid legend Guti found out that he was the winger’s idol and offered to send him a shirt if he joined the club.
As revealed by El Chiringuito, Kvaratskhelia has received his gift from Guti regardless. Along with the present, the former Real Madrid player sent a message that read, "For Khvicha, hope you liked the shirt and I hope your dreams come true. I’m waiting for you in Madrid."
The Napoli winger was elated at receiving the personalised token from the Spanish legend and did not take long to send out his heartfelt gratitude to Guti.
"Thank you for the T-shirt and the message. You are a legend of football. Thank you," he said in a message of heartfelt gratitude before revealing that he too, had a gift for his idol, which remains undisclosed.
While the stage appears to be set to welcome Kvaratskhelia to Madrid, Napoli do not entertain the idea of his departure. The Italians have set a price tag of €100 million on their star to deter any interested parties.
In 22 Serie A appearances for the Naples-based side, the youngster has scored 11 goals and provided nine assists so far. He is expected to be in action later today when Napoli take on Eintracht Frankfurt in the Round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League.
